W.A.D.S

Back in July 2010, WADS staged an open-air production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. It was such fun that WADS is doing it again. But it won’t be the same as before, as the company is looking at a different and exciting new interpretation. It’ll have a 90s vibe; sort of Shakespeare meets the Spice Girls. A Midsummer Spice Dream, perhaps:

One turf shall serve as pillow for us both; One heart, one bed, two bosoms and one troth. Be a little bit wiser baby. Put it on, put it on, 'Cause tonight is the night when two become one.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream will be performed here at Bere Mill from 16 to 18 July 2026​ at 7pm (doors open at 6:30pm).

“Meet me in the palace wood, a mile without the town, by moonlight; there will we rehearse… In the meantime I will draw a bill of properties, such as our play wants, what it really, REALLY wants.”

If you’d like to get involved with props, front of house, music, etc. for this production, come along to a WADS’ club night, every Tuesday 3 at 8pm in Whitchurch Parish Hall, email wadswhitchurch@gmail.com, or telephone 07903 194767.

Dream on...
