Pialligo Estate and Lakespeare & Co. are delighted to introduce Shakespeare by the Vines, a dinner & theatre event like no other in Canberra.

Enter a world of wine, food, fairies and fun, see what fools these mortals be. Set in the stunning Glasshouse space on the beautiful Pialligo Estate with sunset views of the olive grove, and nearby vines and orchards. Just minutes away from the city’s centre, join us for a glass or two of crisp Canberra wine, a plate or four of amazing local produce, take in the venue’s high glass walls, gardens, glorious natural light and immerse yourself in Lakespeare & Co.’s bespoke, bold and vibrant performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

One of the most presented and popular comedies, A Midsummer Night’s Dream gives you three stories: the trials of four young lovers trapped in a forest, the tension between our Fairy Queens Oberon and Titania, and the antics of a group of would-be artisans (‘the mechanicals’) trying to stage an ancient play. Feuding families, parental control and magical madness mix together in Lakespeare’s third production.

There is no show in Canberra like this show. While tickets are limited for the two shows, the memories won’t be. Reserve your seat now >>
