Midsummer Night's Dream in Germany

Midsummer Night's Dream, a production by Senftenberg Theater, Senftenberg-Germany.

It was very interesting to watch another production of a play I've seen at the Royal Shakespeare Company in Stratford-Upon-Avon. This production had a completely different approach, not more or less interesting, but different. As it was the opening of the season in the theatre, the play was placed in many rooms in the theatre. Each act was put in a different room. It took around 5 hours and at the end (when there is a wedding party), dinner and wine were served for the audience. Very interesting experience! Although I think it works mainly because it's a very light comedy.
