Perfect for 7th graders and above, this adaptation of A Midsummer Night's Dream is a shortened version that contains all of the characters, themes and story from the original Shakespeare play, but at a slightly faster pace and with one or two tweaks! The play has been written to be performed without an interval but one could easily be included to turn it into a wonderful two-act production. Let the summer of madness and mayhem begin!
This stage script includes full and comprehensive production notes with guidance for set, props, costumes, lighting and sound effects. The script also includes notes for directors and teachers on approaches to directing the play and great follow-on activities covering story, characters, theme, script layout and performance-related tasks for additional work in the classroom and drama studio.
If you are giving a performance of this play, even to a non-paying audience, you must purchase a corresponding Multiple Performance Rights License from this store.
