Creation Theatre presents A Midsummer Night's Dream
Back by popular demand. Our sell-out 2025 show is returning in Summer 2026 for a limited number of performances. Gather your friends and family, for a very special evening.
We invite you to step into a dream. A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Settle beneath the soft canvas of our open-air tent and let mischief, magic, and moonlight transport you. In true English summer fête style, expect bunting, blossoms, and just a hint of fairy dust as Shakespeare’s most playful comedy comes to life on the picturesque lawn of the Wolfson College cricket ground.
Wander into a world where lovers get lost, fairies meddle, and nothing is quite as it seems. Bring a picnic, grab a Pimm’s, and prepare for a beautiful evening of laughter, wonder, and theatrical magic.
A joyful night out.
A hidden gem of a location.
A midsummer evening you won’t forget.
Don’t dream it – see it.

“Bravo to Creation for bringing something so life affirming, accessible, captivating and hilarious to Oxford this summer… a thoroughly entertaining afternoon. A family-friendly triumph! – Ox in a Box
“Fully entranced we all howled with laughter, children giggling throughout, but while A Midsummer Night’s Dream is wonderfully family-friendly, it isn’t dumbed down. It’s the physicality and humour that makes it so appealing to the younger generation as we all sang along, clapped and chanted our way through.”
