A Bleak Autumn Ahead at the National Theatre

Review: A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM at Regent's Park Open Air Theatre
By Marian Pashley Thursday, July 4 2019, 14:43
I love the open air theatre in Regent's Park, it is one of London's special places, even when it rains. To see a production of A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM on a balmy midsummer night, in a forest (well, the trees do cradle the stage) when so much of its action takes place in such a setting, is a real treat. When the production is also visually striking and the actors not only excellent Shakespearean performers but able to punch the humour to the front of their performance, well, you are really onto a winner.
