Puck A Fairy's Tale
Have you ever wondered what happened before A Midsummer Night?s Dream?
Join Puck, Shakespeare?s most mischievous fairy, on a magical, comedic, heartfelt ride through his origin story, and find out!
Who is Puck? Can he stop the war between his parents? And what?s all this about a magic flower?
A tale for all ages, inspired by A Midsummer Night?s Dream, and The Mad Pranks And Merry Jests Of Robin Goodfellow. The show reimagines the iconic character of Puck as a neurodivergent young person navigating the rift between his parents (Oberon and Titania) and his complex relationship with his new sibling, Titania?s changeling boy.
Caught between two worlds, Puck must, on a journey of magic and mischief, discover who he is on his own terms.
A magical tale for all ages, Puck explores timely themes of neurodivergence, mixed heritage, family relationships, identity, and feeling ?different.?
A Midsummer Night?s Dream ?easter eggs? are sprinkled throughout! But don?t worry if you are unfamiliar with Shakespeare?s play, this is a stand-alone, magical story for all ages!
Direct from Riverside Studios London, nominated for ?Best New Show? at Brighton Fringe 2025.
