A Caribbean Dream

Directed by Shakirah Boume

A beautiful re-imagining of Shakespeare’s magical fairytale A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Set in modern day Barbados, Theseus and Hippolyta are returning Nationals. This traditional tale takes a twist with the creation of new characters where Mechanicals are re-imagined as Fishermen, and Bottom as a Black Belly Sheep, along with Birdman and a Changeling Boy. Chaos and madness unfolds at night, exploring Caribbean folklore and culture.
