Light At Midnight Theatre

Light At Midnight Theatre Where Feminist and classical theatre collides.
- "Sign. Do it for Womankind." 😈 "Women are light at midnight." Sounds alluring and mysterious, right?

Light At Midnight Theatre is where classical and Feminist theatre collide. We make exciting original plays which explore the female stories in classical theatre and retell them through a modern lense. We'll make you laugh, we'll make you cry, and if you're debating the injustices of the patriarchy over a glass of merlot in the theatre bar, we'll consider our show a success. Light At Midnight tells the bards, the poets and the playwrights to take a seat, and enjoy the carnage as we inject some female-fuelled fun into classically male works. Wrong! This quote is from Measure For Measure, Act 5, Scene 1. Escalus and Lucio are plotting to force a confession out of Isabella "in private". Escalus: "I will go darkly to work with her." Lucio: "That is the way, for women are light at midnight." Classical theatre is not usually kind to women, it does not show them in a favourable light. Yet the stories are captivating and entertaining enough to stand the test of time. So, why can't they be female stories? We're shining a light on humanity's midnight deeds in hope to enact change for a fairer, more equal society - and we'll do it with a banging soundtrack too!
