A Midsummer Night’s Dream (Propeller Shakespeare)

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is one of Shakespeare’s most original and eloquent plays, brilliantly interweaving four contrasting groups of characters to present a many-sided view of love in all its aspects: its joys and sadness, its idealism and selfishness, its physical and spiritual elements. This performing edition was prepared for Propellor, an all-male company of twelve actors, at the Watermill Theatre, Newbury, in 2003.

Edward Hall has directed numerous critically acclaimed productions, including Julius Caesar, Henry V and The Two Gentlemen of Verona for the RSC. His other collaborations with Roger Warren include Rose Rage, an adaptation of Shakepeare’s Henry VI trilogy, also published by Oberon Books.
