Alternative Midsummer Night’s Dream script - Midsummer Nightmare is, as the name suggests, just that - for its producer!
You'd think that putting on a summer camp production of A Midsummer Night's Dream would be a doddle, right? WRONG! This particular production is the stuff of nightmares - as our hapless teacher is about to find out! Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined the consequences of falling asleep whilst reading one of his favorite Shakespeare plays.
Same story - but radically different cast - with a little help from Michael Jackson's Thriller!
Midsummer Nightmare II is a longer version of the previously released Midsummer Nightmare. This second version includes the Pyramus & Thisby play, and has a cast of 17 which can be extended to 30.
Approximate running time: 50 minutes.
Writer Sue Russell has just started producing these alternative Shakespeare scripts - another on Romeo & Juliet is available off her website www.plays-r-ussell.com ... And there will be many more (35?) to come!
A 'writing on demand' service is also available - email Sue on sue@plays-r-ussell.com with any requests!

I taught in the U.K. for 15 years - temporary and permanent positions plus supply/substitute teaching. I taught all year groups at primary/elementary level and have done some substitute teaching since arriving in the USA. My degree was in History so I always particularly enjoyed teaching this subject, and creating class plays/assemblies around what I was teaching in the classroom - whether it be Ancient Egyptians or King Henry VIII and his Six Wives!
