English-language A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Prague Castle – 6 & 7 August

 

PSC STATEMENT
Prague Shakespeare Company is honored to partner once again with the Summer Shakespeare Festival and Michal Rychly, Libor Gross and Pavla Sližová to present a seventh year of an English-language Shakespeare production and the return of last summer’s SOLD OUT HIT – A Midsummer Night’s Dream, performed in English with Czech surtitles at the Prague Castle Gardens on 6 & 7 August at 20:30 (8:30pm).

 

Directed by Hammed Animashaun (Loial on Amazon’s Wheel of Time and many productions with the UK Royal National Theatre) and PSC Artistic Director Guy Roberts (Uno Nomesta on Amazon’s Wheel of Time), this fresh take on Shakespeare’s timeless classic is the perfect escape for audiences of all ages to come together and celebrate the wonder of Shakespeare and the magic of falling in love after our time of isolation because of coronavirus.

Set in a magical wood filled with fantastical fairies, sprites and legendary creatures, with original music by Patrick Neil Doyle, This production features a new version of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, translated into contemporary modern English by Tony Award–winning and Oscar-nominated storyteller Jeffrey Whitty. This Midsummer cuts through the centuries to bring audiences a fresh, moment-by-moment take, designed to flow as effortlessly for contemporary audiences as Shakespeare’s beloved classic played to the Elizabethans. This translation was written as part of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival’s Play On! commissioning program. These translations present the work of Shakespeare in language accessible to today’s audiences while never losing the beauty of Shakespeare’s verse and retaining most of the original text.

 

PSC is the professional English-language theatre of the Czech Republic and in previous years for the Summer Shakespeare Festival we provided English language productions of the Globe’s Hamlet, Patrick Doyle’s Shakespeare in Concert, Richard III, Measure for Measure, Othello, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Tickets for the production may be booked at:

ABOUT A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM
Director Guy Roberts on A Midsummer Night’s Dream and the Production

Question: Why another Dream?

GR: Shakespeare’s timeless stories are always relevant. In many ways Dream is the most important Shakespeare play we can examine today. In Shakespeare’s plays the characters always go on an adventure into nature and the wilderness to discover themselves and find out who they truly are as individuals. Because of Covid-19 and the lockdown all of us have experienced this past two and a half years, this is exactly the same journey we have all been on. Although we were trapped in our homes, the isolation that Covid forced on us had a similar effect as Shakespeare’s character’s going on a journey into the magical forest of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. We have all been forced to examine our lives – what is important to us, who do we love, what do we value and what do we want out of life. These are the exact questions that Shakespeare’s character’s face when they leave society and go into the magical woods. The play is incredibly timely and of the utmost urgency now. The other great reason to perform this play now is after our 2 ½ years of Covid, everyone needs a joyous celebration of life and laughter. We have all been living under the dark cloud of Covid and we need the release that only a great, big, wonderful comedy can provide. The sun is shining, the summer will be amazing and it will be a fantastic and uplifting performance under the stars in the beautiful setting of Prague Castle.

 

Question: A Modern English Tongue translation? Is it still Shakespeare? What can you tell us about this?

GR:  Jeffrey Whittey is an unbelievably exciting writer. He is absolutely at the top of his game and we are thrilled to present a fresh, new-take on A Midsummer Night’s Dream with his new Modern English Tongue translation. Originally commissioned by Oregon Shakespeare Festival as part of Play on! 36 playwrights translate Shakespeare, this new version is about 70% Shakespeare and 30% Jeffrey Whittey. All of the difficult and hard-to-understand language has been modernized and made accessible to today’s audiences. We have produced several other Modern English translations in the Play On series such as Love’s Labor’s Lost, Richard II, Troilus and Cressida among others and our audiences love these fresh takes on the plays. Suddenly Shakespeare doesn’t seem so far away and inaccessible. By bringing this great play into a more modern tongue we are liberating the fear audiences have of not understanding the plays, allowing everyone to enjoy the beauty of Shakespeare.

 

Question: Can you summarize what to expect

GR: This classic Shakespeare comedy is the perfect escape for audiences of all ages to come together and celebrate the wonder of Shakespeare and the magic of falling in love after our time of isolation because of coronavirus. Set in a magical wood filled with fantastical fairies, sprites and legendary creatures, with original music by Patrick Neil Doyle, this production features some of the best English-speaking classical actors working in Continental Europe. With beautiful costumes, sets and lights by our amazing Czech Designers Eva Bellefeuille, Přemysl Janda, Eva  Nyklíčková, and Markéta Trösterová-Fantová (Artistic director of Prague Quadrennial), this production will be the perfect summer entertainment for the whole family.

ABOUT PRAGUE SHAKESPEARE COMPANY

 

PSC Mission
Now in our fourteenth season, the Prague Shakespeare Company presents professional theatre productions, workshops, classes, lectures and other theatrical events of the highest quality, conducted primarily in English by a diverse multinational ensemble of professional theatre artists, with an emphasis on the plays of William Shakespeare. The Prague Shakespeare Company brings to Czech, European and international audiences performances that are fresh, bold, imaginative, thought-provoking, and eminently accessible, connecting the truths of the past with the challenges and possibilities of today.

PSC Vision
The core of our artistic vision is creating high-caliber, classic yet cutting-edge English language performances of Shakespeare’s timeless, cross-culturally relevant work with a dedicated ensemble of theatre artists. The Prague Shakespeare Company is dedicated to presenting to Czech, European and world communities vibrant year-round, professional theatre, essential in shaping Prague’s global, culturally dynamic landscape.

Why PSC?
Until the launch of the Prague Shakespeare Company, Prague’s theatre arts patrons, audiences, artists and students lacked comprehensive access to professional English-language classical theatre. Prague Shakespeare Company fills a void in Prague’s arts and expat community by presenting classical English-language dramatic works that are fresh, vibrant, affordable and engaging. The Prague Shakespeare Company is the only professional English-language classical theatre company in the Czech Republic.

Why Shakespeare?
The Prague Shakespeare Company believes that Shakespeare is our theatrical DNA and that there is a reason his texts still reverberate today. These timeless stories are universal in theme, speaking directly to the human condition around the world, through all ages. Over four hundred years since their premiere, Shakespeare’s plays continue to inspire and entertain in theatres throughout the world, in every language in which any kind of theatrical performance is given. Shakespeare’s work offers a dramatic richness unequaled in any other age or epoch; it is theatre where the ritualistic and the comic, the high-brow and the low-brow, the lyrical and the bawdy, all meet and intermingle with the complexity of life. Shakespeare’s words constantly remind us of our own humanity and through his texts we can better understand our own modern experiences, anxieties, and sensibilities. A primary purpose of the Prague Shakespeare Company is to continue this rich tradition of entertaining, enlightening, educating and inspiring audiences, artists and students not only in the Czech Republic and Europe but worldwide.

Why English-language Shakespeare in Prague?
There is a rich tradition of experiencing Shakespeare in English in the Czech Republic. Robert Browne’s acting troupe perhaps played Shakespeare in English in Prague as early as 1596 and then certainly in 1603. In 1619 they returned to celebrate the wedding of Princess Elizabeth to the Elector of Palatine. Shortly before that time Czech aristocrats watched plays in the Globe and other London theatres whilst on their travels. The English language continues to be the most dominant world language for business and commerce and is the language of the greatest writer in the Western tradition: William Shakespeare. To truly experience Shakespeare one must “hear” the plays in the English language. Shakespeare in English also compliments the great tradition of Shakespeare performances in Czech; deepening appreciation and understanding for audiences, artists and students not only of art, theatre and Shakespeare but the English-language as well.

 

PSC Artistic Company
At the heart of the Prague Shakespeare Company are the actors, designers, writers, musicians, technicians, teachers, directors and other theatre artists who, make up the annual season artistic company. The PSC Artistic Company seeks to be as inclusive as possible and we invite artists from across the world – both able-bodied and disabled, without regard to race, nationality, ethnicity, religion, gender non-conforming, genderqueer, transgender and non-binary individuals, to work with PSC. The Artistic Company, under the guidance of the Artistic Director, work constantly together to explore a cohesive classical style. PSC provides an ensemble atmosphere for extended theatrical exploration wherein company members work as a group to develop skills and to perfect their craft through the continuity of several productions over multiple seasons. The quality of commitment demanded of the company members fosters cohesiveness as well as an intensity of approach to PSC’s repertoire. PSC nurtures and supports the creative endeavors of the artistic company and creates an environment in which all members feel that they are valued participants in a shared undertaking. PSC embraces opportunities for collaborative work and training and a sharing of experiences with other artists and companies, locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally, as a way of enhancing professional development and expanding personal visions. In these endeavors, the primary focus of the company is the work of William Shakespeare, though the company’s productions are not limited to Shakespeare’s plays.

PSC Associate Artists
The core of the PSC Artistic Company are the PSC Associate Artists. They are the dedicated nucleus of the artistic teams, representing PSC in public functions and serving as a model to other company members. They work closely with the Artistic Director, contributing to the shape of each season and the direction of the company. PSC Associate Artists include Jessica Boone, Taylor Napier, Gregory Gudgeon, Laura Baranik, Lane Davies, Jared Doreck, Fanette Ronjat, Jonathan Perrien, Lenka Fisherova, David Fisher, John Poston, Bree Welch, Philip Hays, Bob Boudreaux, Marketa Fantová, Abigail Rice, Scott Bellefueille, Eva Bellefueille, Jeff Smith, Vanessa Gendron, Charles Frederick Secrease, Amy Huck, Karel Heřmánek ml., Elissa Levitt, Přemysl Janda, Valeria Vasilova, Irwin Appel, Brad Caleb Lee, Diego DiGiovanni, Jan Thompson OBE, Begum Burian, Nikol Heřmánková Kouklová, Jim Johnson, Carolyn Johnson, and Peter Hosking, among others.
