Episode notes
Connie has to make a last minute presentation at school on the themes of Shakespeare’s magical and mischievous play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and she has no idea where to start! Luckily, her Uncle Chris and the community theatre company are experts on Shakespeare, so they decide to go on an Armchair Adventure into the world of the play to find out more. 🎭
There, they’re met by characters from the play, including Puck and their fairy friends🧚 🧚including King and Queen of the fairies, Oberon and Titania. The adventurers find much mischief and mayhem as the fairies’ magic turns the world of A Midsummer Night’s Dream upside down – a man has even had his head turned into a donkey’s! 🪄🫏
But will they find everything that Connie needs in time for her to make her presentation? And will Shakespeare’s play have a happy ending, or will everything remain topsy-turvy?
Join us as we land in the world of A Midsummer Night’s Dream for fairy tricks, magical love potions and lovers loving the wrong people! ❤️😍❤️

Shelly & The Can Do Kids
Shelly & The Can-Do Kids is a storytelling podcast for kids aged 6-10. It is brought to you by two mothers who love stories, but can’t bear to just read them aloud to their children, like normal parents, but instead like to spend months recording them with music and sound effects!! There will be songs. There will be good chat. There will be magic! Join Shelly as she seeks to make kids ‘a little bit more can-do!’
