Teater Nordkraft's Skærsommernat is a free reimagining of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, staged as a theatre concert that brings the whole audience onto the stage. Five actors, three musicians and an opera singer perform all around you, so you are in the heart of the party.
You arrive as a guest at a summer celebration. In a lavish hall you take your seat at the table and settle in for an evening well beyond the ordinary. The production is about generating new energy and rediscovering the desire, and the courage, to imagine that the world could look different.
The cast includes Laura Kold, Thomas Nielsen, Lærke Schjærff Engelbrecht, Jonathan Stahlschmidt, Troels Kortegaard Ullerup, Nickie Johansson, Silke Kirstine Ekmann Kidholm, Nanna-Karina Schleimann and Frederik Sandfeld Madsen. Minna Johannesson directs and conceives the production.
