Thanks for another fantastic show last night! A Midsummer Night’s Dream was exquisite and hilarious. – Michael Bagby

Opening night at the Straz for A Midsummer Night’s Dream was incredible. The passion this troupe of bright actors brings to Tampa is tremendous and can be felt throughout their exquisite rendition of a Shakespearean favorite. There is a level of culture, wit, and induced imagination that I have never felt before in theatre and shall not likely forget. Kudos to everyone involved in this production and my sincerest thanks! – Devon Chessher

Theatrical Ecstasy. Perfect description – Amy Sanford

What a great show! There’s a lot I could say, but most was said at the cast talk back: I so loved the visual effects of the aerial work as they gave the show something I’d not seen before. Yes, Katrina flew in the Tempest, but using all four corners and having that action sans dialogue in different parts of the production really gave a feeling of the magical realism Midsummer ought to give. Visually compelling but also narratively effective. The simplicity of the stage set, along with the use of the visual “magic” encouraged our suspension of disbelief and the navigation from Athens to the forest was all the easier. – Ben Graffam

Saw this last night and had a blast. The aerial work and music really made this already fun play a real treat. The cast was terrific and insanely talented. Don’t be intimidated by the Shakespearean-ness of the material. It’s very approachable and funny in the right hands. – Heidi Bissell

As always @jobsitetheater f*cking rocked the Shakespeare. This is the only theatre company that could do the impossible: actually make me like Demetrius and ship him and Helena – @transhelllterror

[Midsummer] begins with a lot of energy. Immediately we are transported to another world, because acrobats a la Cirque du Soleil come onto the stage, dancing and immediately some dancers/acrobats take to large hanging rings, and also silky fabric that hangs on the corners of the central stage and the fairlies take us with them into Dream worlds that we know from the Zirkus.The plot then weaves itself into this remote entrance and we let ourselves in for the midsummer night happenings fulfilled in dreams and fantasy. Puck, who decisively determines the plot, and with dispensing magic agent through which everyone encounters what they see upon awakening with love desires, is particularly well represented by the Katrina Stevenson, who is equally attuned to dance, acrobatics and acting. Experienced Shakespeare actors such as Giles Davies (Bottom) always make the performance a joyful back and forth between seriousness and comedy, and this time every word is particularly well understood on the center stage, surrounded by seating on three sides, which is a special achievement in acoustics the dance and the excellent acting of this cast. The stage props consist of a few seating elements, the action always close to the floor and characterized by a lot of movement. It is emphasized to the audience that one should stay seated in order not to disturb this fluent action. One cannot help but become fascinated by all of the events, in the end you are completely enchanted. – Susanne Neilsen
