THE MAGIC of Shakespeare has come to Much Marcle Primary, in a special event to mark the 400th anniversary of the bard's death.

Older children at the school have been performing "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at The Courtyard in Hereford this week.

And younger children have been busy practising the play at school, with the scenes with fairies and magic proving to be particularly popular.

The entire school will be performing A Midsummer Night’s Dream for their families and friends at Hellens House, Much Marcle, from Monday July 11 until Wednesday July 13.
