Bit behind with the blog today. This is the weekend's pair. Only one pair for both days because I didn't go to sleep on Saturday at all so the weekend essentially counts as one day.
It's been a while since I pulled an all-nighter but it seemed fitting as we were celebrating the opening weekend of A Midsummer Night's Dream. A very successful opening weekend. The audiences loved us. As I knew they would. The critics loved us too - here's an extract from the False Bay Echo by Lieske Bester:
There’s magic at the Masque where one of the Bard’s best loved works is given a splendid new look which highlights the timelessness and universality of the writing....A Midsummer Night’s Dream is indeed a play about love and dreams and fun, in this case great fun. Directed with a clear vision that is shared by a committed and talented cast and crew, there isn't a false move anywhere. Shakespeare himself would have been proud of the originality of the presentation.
