      "Fun with Shakespeare!"

      If you like Shakespeare you should see this production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. And if you think you don't like Shakespeare you should see it anyway because there is nothing not to like about... Expand

      If you like Shakespeare you should see this production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. And if you think you don't like Shakespeare you should see it anyway because there is nothing not to like about this show. It's just plain fun. All the actors are excellent and totally into it. The actress (!) who played Puck contributed to the dreamy, fairy-land ambience by moving about with a balletic, athletic, poetic agility that probably only a real fairy could achieve. On the other hand the four-sided love triangle is as modern as MySpace. My mother said that back in her day young women did not throw themselves at young men. Evidently they did in Shakespeare's day, at least Helena did. And you have to admire the athleticism with which she did it. Everybody can enjoy this play, even kids. There's plenty of action but nothing indecent and nothing more violent than Pyramus and Thisby committing a prolonged but hilarious double suicide. Collapse
