Rough Magic
Following the Olivier Award-nominated, ‘fantastically funny’ ★★★★★ (Broadway World) Midsummer Mechanicals, Shakespeare’s Globe and Splendid Productions present a brand-new family show, Rough Magic, in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse this summer.
‘Round about the cauldron go;
In the magic creatures throw…’
Join us in the world of Shakespeare’s magical characters as Macbeth’s wonderfully wayward Weird Sisters cook up a supernaturally silly adventure of their own.
‘Witches’ spells, ghosts galore,
Feisty fairies, monsters and more!’
The Globe’s Director of Education Lucy Cuthbertson (Playing Shakespeare with Deutsche Bank: Romeo and Juliet; Midsummer Mechanicals, Globe) and Splendid Productions’ Kerry Frampton and Ben Hales (Midsummer Mechanicals, Globe) join forces once again to bring you a magical summertime treat for all ages.
‘By the pricking of my thumbs, something SILLY this way comes…’
– Macbeth, Act IV, scene 1 (kind of…)
A co-production with Splendid Productions, Rough Magic is recommended for everyone from age 5 to 105.
