There are only three more performances of Paul Treasure's
A Midsummmer Night's Dream which is a shame, as this production is certainly not to be missed.

I saw this play last night and came away feeling inspired.

Using a minimalistic set design, Paul succeeds in creating a simple yet creatively beautiful fairy world around which all the midsummer madness revolves. The set is amazingly atmospheric in its simplicity.

Some compelling interpretations - Puck, Oberon, Helena, Titania & Lysander.

All the actors performed smoothly and effortlessly and if there were any mistakes, it was hard to spot them.

If you love Shakepeare go and see this!
If you don't like Shakespeare then this may well change your mind.
