About

Shakespeare’s Funniest Play Returns to Penang!

When Shakespeare Demystified: A Midsummer Night’s Dream premiered in Penang in February 2020, audiences roared with laughter and fell in love with the Bard’s timeless storytelling. Now, KL Shakespeare Players (KLSP) is bringing the magic back!

Whether you're a Shakespeare enthusiast or a newcomer, this lively and hilarious performance will have you laughing out loud while discovering the genius of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

KLSP is Malaysia’s only theatre company dedicated to regularly staging Shakespeare’s works, making them accessible without oversimplifying. Since 2011, teachers have told us that our performances do half their work, while many adults have shared that, for the first time, they truly understand Shakespeare’s more challenging passages and scenes.

Our Shakespeare Demystified format uniquely blends Shakespeare’s original text with contemporary English narration, ensuring that anyone—regardless of prior exposure—can appreciate the story, key themes, and deeper meanings.

Don’t miss this chance to experience Shakespeare like never before!

Synopsis

In a forest, love and magic collide as mischievous fairies meddle with four young lovers and a troupe of amateur actors. Mistaken identities, enchantments, and a love potion gone wrong create chaos and comedy
