A Midsummer Night's Dream

Suitable for 14 and upward, this slick and pacey production revolves around only five actors playing a wealth of characters. Using minimum set for maximum impact and remaining faithful to the traditional text, Bruiser's production of this classic is simple, effective and invigorating, making it relevant to a modern audience by exploring its universal themes. Bruiser tranforms this charming tale into a highly stylised magical web of love, lust, wit and deceit. With a hefty dose of horseplay, slapstick and tomfoolery, Bruiser's "A Midsummer-Night's Dream" is an educational and entertaining treat!

Bruiser Theatre Company was nominated for both a 2002 Belfast City Council Arts Award and a Buzz Magazine Irish Entertainment Award for this production.

Critics Reviews

  "A better, more clearly spoken, introduction to the 
   Bard as study than this critic ever had the good 
   fortune to delight in. Go see."
