Running from 12 to 20 March via the RSC s website,
Dream is set up in collaboration with Manchester International Festival (MIF), Marshmallow Laser Feast (MLF) and Philharmonia Orchestra. It was originally meant to premiere last year but had its run halted by the pandemic.
Utilising motion capture, the production will explore ways in which remote audiences can witness live performance. Inspired by Shakespeare s A Midsummer Night s Dream, the show will allow spectators to explore an enchanted forest, full of sprites and fairies including Puck. Viewers can choose to buy a ticket to take part at key points in the play, or view the performance for free.
