MECC Presents: Queensland Ballet - A Midsummer Night's Dream

Before purchasing tickets, please read the Terms & Conditions.

A Midsummer Night's Dream has captured the hearts of many, young and old, in the centuries since it was written. Brimming with mischief and mayhem, Shakespeare's fantastical masterpiece interweaves the magical realm of fairies and woodland creatures with the mortal world of unrequited lovers.

This enchanting Shakespearean comedy is beautifully enhanced by Tracy Grant Lord’s shimmering sets and Kendall Smith’s ambient lighting designs. Liam Scarlett’s witty choreography brings the woodlands and vivid characters to life, to the sublime score by Felix Mendelssohn.

Don’t miss one of Scarlett’s most exceptional productions as Queensland Ballet tours to Mackay.

Production performed to recorded music. Recording by Queensland Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Nigel Gaynor.
