CBeebies A Midsummer Night's Dream
A Midsummer Night's Dream
CBeebies contributes to the BBC's Shakespeare Festival 2016 with a special performance of the bard's magical play, tailored to pre-school audiences. Swashbuckle's Cook and Line (Joseph Elliott and Richard David-Caine) swap swabbing the deck for treading the boards as a pair of stage-hands helping William Shakespeare put on his play. Josette Simon and Roger Griffiths preside as Titania and Oberon, Queen and King of the Fairies, while Mr Tumble star Justin Fletcher clowns around as Bottom the Weaver, the star of the play-within-a-play
CBeebies A Midsummer Night's Dream airs on CBeebies HD at 2:25 PM, Wednesday 31 December. (Subtitles, repeat, audio description.)
