Last night my beloved faeryshaman  and I, accompanied by the fabulous ladyfuchsia, went to see Shakespeare's "Midsummer Night's Dream" performed outdoors at twilight in the Royal Botanical Gardens.

It was a relatively small production, but was great- hilarious and quite bawdy, as Shakespeare was intended to be.  The actor playing Puck was fabulous at bodily capturing

It's my beloved's favorite as well. I've seen the recent one you mention and really liked it, though I'm not familiar with the old B&W one with Mickey Rooney. I'll have to look that one up- thanks for mentioning it!

Sounds like an awesome evening! I love when theater is done well & especially when Shakespeare is taken to creative terrain.

It was! And I think you would have LOVED this adaptation of Shakespeare.
