ACTEast Presents: A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Hero Carousel

The course of true love never did run smooth.

The dream begins at night. The dream begins in East London.

Join us in Athens reimagined by day
The City of London paves the way
For four young lovers desperate to pursue
What they think is love, what they think is true.
Bankers and politicians keep the score
Taking backhanders, enforcing old law
But venture out, a little further East
To Stratford, to Hackney, to Shoreditch, feast
Your eyes on a forest of East London
Nightlife delights there’s fights in abundance
Fairies take over with mischief galore
Watch your eyes if they droop then thy amore
Might not be your amore anymore
Everything is not quite what it seems
As plays are rehearsed and lost in their dreams
So join us, come in, what will come to pass?
Methought I was enamoured of an ass.
