A Midsummer Night's Dream Act 3 Scene 1 | Bottom Takes A Selfie | Bridge Theatre

In Act 3 Scene 1 of A Midsummer Night's Dream, Bottom (Hammed Animashaun) and the Rude Mechanicals must find a 'calendar' to confirm the moon will shine the night they perform their play, and most importantly, take some selfies.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream (2019) saw the Bridge Theatre become a forest – a dream world of flying fairies, contagious fogs and moonlight revels, surrounded by a roving audience following the action on foot.

Gwendoline Christie, Oliver Chris, David Moorst and Hammed Animashaun lead the cast as Titania, Oberon, Puck and Bottom, in Shakespeare’s most famous romantic comedy.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is streaming from 7pm UK time on Thursday 25 June, until 7pm UK time on Thursday 2 July 2020.
