Four Lovers | Cork Midsummer Festival

As part of the Cork Midsummer Festival 2023, Circus Factory is delighted to announce a four-night showing of a brand new show “Four Lovers”.

The Four Lovers is an excerpt from Shakespeare’s ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’. It’s where Circus meets Shakespeare. Where love, magic, and mischief all collide.

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind…” Join us as the sun goes down for a circus-infused excerpt from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer’s Nights Dream as part of Cork Midsummer Festival 2023. Become voyeurs of Desire, Jealousy, Rivalry, and Scorn as you witness spectacular acrobatic performances answering the age old question: is love just lust, or rational thought? Including artists Lidija Šola, Cormac Mohally, Callum Donald, Henrik Gard and Ali Stanger, alongside the legendary musician 0phelia McCabe.
