A Dream Play is the latest adventure into the world of the bizarre by the talented ensemble Ignite.

August Strindberg, the ‘father of modern theatre’ wrote his groundbreaking exploration of the dark corners of our dreams when naturalism ruled the stages smashing the limits of the imagination.

‘Everything is possible and probable’ August Strindberg

Here it is re-worked by a contemporary master, Caryl Churchill whose razor-sharp precision presents us with a sparse and stunningly poignant vision of contemporary disillusionment.

Join Ignite as they unite two legendary minds in an unmissably reckless and exuberant night of theatre.

From the cavernous minds behind Jet of Blood, 3 Short Absurd Works and Bat Boy: The Musical.

' I dream therefore I am.' August Strindberg

with Gary Abrahams, Nicholas Dubberley, Michael Finney, Kate Gregory, Heath Miller, Hannah Norris, Meredith Penman, Karen Roberts, and Mark Tregonning.
