Critics’ Circle Award winning company, Ballet Cymru, present a vibrant, fresh, and innovative new full-length ballet, based on Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Scored by Olivier award-winning instrumentalist and composer Frank Moon, Ballet Cymru have created a magical, gender-bending world of fairies, lovers, and bewitching enchantment.
A sparkling re-interpretation of a classic tale, DREAM features Ballet Cymru’s ground-breaking dancers, stunning video projection, and innovative choreography from Artistic Directors Darius James OBE and Amy Doughty.
Frank Moon is one of the leading composers for dance in the UK, and his compositions include The Metamorphosis (Royal Opera House, winner of an Olivier award, a Sky Arts South Bank Award, and the Critic’s Circle National Dance Award), The Little Match Girl (Jerwood DanceEast / Sadler’s Wells).
Ballet Cymru return to the Festival after delighting audiences with Cinderella (2018), Romeo & Juliet (2019) and Giselle (2021).
