A Midsummer Night's Dream
"Wanderers Theatre is incredibly excited to present an immersive production of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night's Dream. This production brings everything audiences love about this story, from the whimsical setting to the mischievous characters, and enhances it by presenting the show in a roving style, moving between two locations on a large regional property. Witness the show on a gorgeous summer evening surrounded by the beautiful Australian bushland, where the towering trees create the backdrop to a lush, open stage space. The show is fun, bold and non-traditional, an experience in its own right. Audiences can leave the real world behind and step into Shakespeare’s Athens and the magical forest, where the incredible natural world spills into the valley, the actors play amongst the crowd and, in the soft light of dusk, the forest comes alive."

Vinegar Tom
.jpg)
Evil, malicious women who practice witchcraft? Or just women who refuse to conform, who want independence and freedom and to be more than their small-minded town is willing to accept? Vinegar Tom, written by Caryl Churchill and presented by The Wanderers Theatre, explores the story of ambitious, rebellious women in a society that cannot handle their free spirits.
