Barking & Dagenham Youth Theatre brings Shakespeare's Dream to the Broadway

Our next annual production is Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' - performing at Barking's Broadway Theatre for three nights on 1, 2 and 3 April 2008!

 

With costumes boosted by special funding from the Jack Petchey Foundation*, as decided by latest Youth Theatre achievement winner Laura Besly, Barking & Dagenham's new production promises to be a colourful and unique modern interpretation of the classical rom-com.

Tickets priced £5.00 (£3.00 concessions) are available now by calling the Broadway Box Office on 020 8507 5607 or choose your own seats online at The Broadway.
