Staged at the Godinymayin Yijard Rivers Arts and Culture Centre Ampitheatre, attendees are encouraged to bring picnics, rugs and bean bags for a night under the stars.
Godinymayin director Poppy Searle said she is thrilled to be hosting a unique and entertaining interpretation of a classic Shakespearian comedy as part of the dry season program of events.
"The cast of eight professional actors will take you on a spell-binding ride as they tell the tale of four young lovers who find themselves wrapped in the dream-like arms of an enchanted forest where spirits play and fairies rule," she said.
