BOTTOM: Where’s Peaseblossom?
PEASEBLOSSOM: Ready.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Act IV, Scene I

This unique one-fairy show, based on Tim Crouch’s brilliant reimagining of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream – personally endorsed by the playwright – takes audiences on an extraordinary journey through the eyes of Peaseblossom. A minor character with just five words in the original play, Peaseblossom blossoms into vivid life in this captivating solo performance, offering a fresh, heartfelt, and humorous perspective on the magical mayhem between the Fairy King and Queen.

 Already invited to the 2025 Shakespeare Festival in Verona and directed by Philip Parr (York International Shakespeare Festival), the production weaves exquisite storytelling with playful audience interaction, gleefully smashing the fourth wall to create a dynamic, immersive experience. Performed by Filip Krenus, the show blends inventive theatricality with spirited improvisation.

The piece also features interactive video animations by acclaimed visual artist Zdenko Bašić, bringing to life each of the six dreams Peaseblossom shares with the audience as he wades through the messy aftermath of the play’s wedding feasts — part revel, part reckoning.

I, Peaseblossom is an imaginative and mischievous retelling that invites audiences to see Shakespeare’s world through the eyes of the overlooked. Expect laughter, longing, and the lingering sparkle of a party no one quite remembers… except Peaseblossom.

 Running time: approximately 60 minutes (no interval).
