________________________________________________________________
Britten’s tale of enchantment, madness and love weaves together Shakespeare’s timeless wit with stunning orchestration.
In a forest teeming with magic, mortals and fairies entwine in the classic tale of Oberon and Titania’s quarrel.
Following sell-out successes in 2023 and 2024, our local community participants, together with Wexford Factory artists, will create and present an immersive performance of music and dialogue, in a non-theatrical setting.
