Midsummer Night's Dream

I'm going to see this at the Dundee Rep this evening. I can't wait!
I've not seen a live production of this for years, and this one has been getting quality reviews.

i went to see this on monday. It was pretty great. Very funny and quite up to date with the humour that is in it. I would go see it again definitely

I went to see this yesterday afternoon. It's a great production! They make good use of humour outside of script and stage directions without distracting from the script itself. Well acted, very funny and the stage is very, very cool.

This was SO good!

All the actors were amazing, and the "play within the play" had me laughing out loud on many occasions. The guy who played Bottom was genius - his facial expressions alone were enough to make you laugh. How cool was it the first time someone went in the water? I thought it was just a little pool then suddenly people were going right under the water!

Brilliant casting, brilliant performances, and a really cool set. Highly recommended.
