THE MERRY CONCEITED HUMOURS OF BOTTOME THE WEAVER
Based on A Midsummer Night's Dream, compiled by Robert Cox
Directed by Luke Rowe
Saturdays at 11:00am & 1:00pm
A new location every week!
“Attention: We’re seeking a royal audience to our production of Pyramus and Thisbe: a play about love and tragedy, hearts and hearts that are broken, compassion and non-compassionate things. Pyramus and Thisbe stars the in-affable Bottome as the tragic lover. Please be warned that one actor will be dressed as a lion. Do not be frightened, for he is not a real lion.”
The Merry Conceited Humours of Bottome The Weaver is a 30-minute cut of A Midsummer Night’s Dream directed for young audiences. Kids and families are invited to watch Bottome be transformed into a donkey, The Fairy Queen fall in love, and the mischievous Puck see to Oberon’s masterplan, all while Quince and the Mechanicals just try to rehearse their play.
July 12th - Husky Energy Fountain, Bowring Park
July 19th - A.C. Hunter Public Library Lawn
July 26th - Centennial Park, Mount Pearl
August 2nd - Playground, Bannerman Park
August 8th - Perchance Theatre, Conception Harbour
Shows are weather permitting, but will proceed in less than favourable conditions, provided it is safe for performers and audience alike. Bring a comfortable chair or cushion, a blanket, picnic, rain coat, or sun hat as befits the ever changing NL weather! Limited seating is available in 16x16" black folding chairs, or on site picnic tables (fixed locations).
