A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM
Oddsocks will be taking to the road again in the summer of 2025 with another high-energy, feel-good, family theatre show. Shakespeare’s most magical, fast paced, hilarious comedy; “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” will be performed in Oddsocks’ inimitable irreverent and knockabout style with live music, comedy action and even some outrageous hunting dogs!
Four lovers run off to the Athenian forest where mysterious woodland creatures play tricks on them with hilarious results and when a troupe of amateur actors decide to rehearse in a glade, the fairies intervention leads to bizarre and outrageous comedy.
Don’t miss out – Catch the Dream!

Reviews of past Oddsocks productions:
“Without doubt the performance was among the best productions that I have seen”
Jersey Evening Post
“A thoroughly enjoyable night out. Once again, they’ve succeeded in making Shakespeare accessible.”
“Many times the beauty and cadence of the bard’s lines ring out even amidst the comedic clamour.”
“a magical combination of farce, physical theatre, silly sight gags, puppetry and, yes, the bard’s immortal prose.”

Shakespeare on the Lawn returns after more than a decade!!!
Wednesday, August 14th 2024
Oddsocks Productions return to Kinnersley Castle for their final performance of 2024 on their 35th anniversary. A one-off event not to be missed...rain or shine! Bring your own blanket or use our seating. Bar & snacks will be available to purchase or bring your own picnic!
Rome 44BC. Egotistical Emperor Julius Caesar is sweating (and it’s not just the
heatwave). His liberal Senators are a stabbing pain in the backside. They’ve
had enough! Rome is in chaos, trust in the government is weak and the
emperor’s fate is written in the stars (or the ‘entrails of a goat’). The peasants
are revolting as the most famous political coup in literature is given the
Oddsocks treatment. Expect the tearing of togas, the swishing of roman swords,
some preposterous puppetry and the biggest battle scene five actors have ever
created.
On your marcus, getus setus, let the games begin!​

Suitable for all from 7-107
