A Midsummer Night’s Dream – Bridge Theatre
Before the summer is over, here’s a dreamy version of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Deep in the magical forest a feuding King and Queen cross paths with four runaway lovers and a troupe of comic actors, resulting in tempestuous love triangles, contagious fogs and moonlight revels, and, because it’s in the Bridge Theatre, they’re surrounded by a roving audience following the action on foot.
Gwendoline Christie, Oliver Chris, David Moorst and Hammed Animashaun lead the cast as Titania, Oberon, Puck and Bottom, in Shakespeare’s’ most famous romantic comedy.
This was a somewhat contentious production from Nick Hytner’s Bridge Theatre. See what you think.
