BURLINGTON, ON

Is there something Shakespearian about the way things have worked out with the performance schedule of the two week run of A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the RBG Rock Garden?

Crowded and noisy Midsummer

Traffic tie ups on the QEW kept several cast members in the cars and not on the lawn – resulting in the cancellation of the Friday performance.

Bad enough that they had to contend with weather, that just didn’t work for them, – then traffic kept a couple of his performers in their cars somewhere on the QEW Friday evening

There are two performances left – this evening and then Sunday evening.

Reception of the play has been great.

A site that will allow 220 seats had to find a way to get 255 in place only to have the rain get in the way – again.

Midsummer - cast and audience

The setting was superb – the rain wasn’t really necessary.

The weather issues need not get in the way of a superb idea – what will they plan for next summer?
