Shakespeare goes Bardcore!

Get ready for Bardcore - Midsummer Mayhem, an explosive, ground-breaking collaboration presented by the acclaimed Wrestling Resurgence and the award-winning 1623 Theatre Company. This is Shakespeare as you've never seen it before, blending classic theatrical drama with the adrenaline-pumping excitement of professional wrestling.

Experience epic clashes as storied rivalries take physical form, captivating you with fierce battles that echo timeless Shakespearean themes of ambition, jealousy, revenge, and honour. Watch as cunning plots unfold, friendships fracture, alliances shift, and comedic mischief fills the ring in a whirlwind of theatrical athleticism and dramatic storytelling.

Witness beloved characters from classics "A Midsummer Night's Dream" as they grapple, slam, and soar in astonishing displays of strength, agility, and charisma. Brace yourself for intense encounters, shocking betrayals, and laughter-filled antics that seamlessly blend Shakespearean eloquence with electrifying wrestling performances.

Inclusivity is at the heart of Bardcore - Midsummer Mayhem, with British Sign Language (BSL) interpretation and audio description creatively integrated into the show, ensuring an immersive experience for everyone.
