Illyria

Perennially popular, universally loved, the play follows four couples – three human and one fairy – whose passions are sorely tested when a troupe of amateur theatricals rehearse a play about a doomed love affair. Add in to the mix a heady brew of confusion, magic and mischief and you have the perfect comedy for a summer evening. Since the company’s first production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream in 1992 Illyria have won no less than 4 international theatre awards and still perform the entire play, uncut, with just 5 quick-changing, fast-running actors who share all the roles between them.
