Marin Shakespeare Company: Midsummer Night's Dream

A Midsummer Night's Dream

Hippoltya and Theseus “Two years ago the Marin Shakespeare Company established itself as a major player in West Coast summer Shakespeare with a smash hit Dream featuring acrobat/clowns from San Francisco’s New Pickle Circus. This summer, artistic director Robert Currier is reprising his exuberantly funny production, with Diane Wasnak and Jeff Raz, 1994’s two standout stars, returning as Puck and Bottom….Wasnak embodies the character with so much feral grace and impish humor that she makes her Puck seem the most ideal conception imaginable….Wasnak induces nonstop pleasure and almost constant laughter. Raz, with whom she does some acrobatic tricks during the Pyramus-and-Thisbe sequence, is also a first-class acrobat/clown ….sparkling, garlanded grotto set….appropriately dreamy music.”
Matthew Surrence, Back Stage West

Titania's Fairies and the Changeling Child

“Marin Shakespeare Company’s revival of its award-winning 1994 production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a gem. Subtlety has been added to excellence….Diane Wasnak’s Puck is perfect….The cast is excellent….Even if you saw the 1994 production, don’t miss this one.”
Bess Davoren, Tiburon Ark

Oberson's Gang

“Marin Shakespeare Company’s version of this famous play is anything but traditional ….The high-energy production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a potpourri of acrobatics, juggling and playful choreography, and is performed with a light-hearted comedic style.” Alaska Airlines Magazine
