Reviews
How to get your child hooked on Shakespeare.
The Daily Telegraph
One of the best and most exciting productions of this great play I have seen, ever...a thrilling sense of imagination and intelligence.
The Sunday Times
Propeller proves again the value of a true ensemble and a director who treats Shakespeare’s plays as if they’d just been written... I would have cried if I hadn’t been laughing so much.
The Guardian
In short, this was as sublime a production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream as I have seen. An unrestrained delight.
Theatreworld
Hall’s funny, moving, inventive and yet beautifully relaxed and unpretentious production is about the magic of transformation, the power of the imagination, the spell that only the theatre can cast. See it.
