Shakespeare play cancelled ‘over song about Gaza and trans rights’

Midsummer Night’s Dream Ruined By Transgender Gaza Bullshit

An adaptation of A Midsummer Night’s Dream with a drum’n’bass soundtrack has had its five-week run cancelled over references to Gaza and trans rights, it has been claimed.

Inspired by the Manchester music scene, the modern reimagining of Shakespeare’s comedy was supposed to have its premiere on September 6 at the city’s 750-seat Royal Exchange Theatre.
