The Managing Directors of the Athenian and Amazonian factories look to mark their marriage and the merger of their two companies with a night of celebration. A group of factory workers (rude mechanicals) rehearse their play for this very night. Four lovers steal away to escape the judgement of their overbearing elders. All the while, the King and Queen of fairyland fight for control in the surrounding streets.

Bath Drama presents a fun reimagining of one of Shakespeare’s most fantastical works, full of fairies, romance, magic, comedy and mayhem, transposed from the medieval Athens and the surrounding forest to a 1980’s factory and the dark, winding streets.
