There's not long to wait until the Everyman Theatre stages its enchanting new production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, one of Shakespeare's most popular and accessible comedies — starring none other than Gloucestershire clown, Tweedy!
A perfect first introduction to Shakespeare's works — and hilarious rendition that will have long-term fans of the bard howling in their seats — the show runs from Thursday 21 to Saturday 31 March 2024, breathing new life into the timeless play.
And of course, it wouldn't be Shakespeare without a clown!
Ahead of his performance, SoGlos taught up with Tweedy to find out why clowning is essential in Shakespearean productions — with an exclusive insight into what audiences can expect from the show when it hits the stage, too.
A Midsummer Night’s Dream runs from Thursday 21 to Saturday 30 March 2024, with tickets starting from £15 per person.
There will also be post-show discussions with director, Paul Milton, following the performances on Wednesday 27 and Thursday 28 March 2024.
