WITS chats Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' | 1968 and 2016 productions
from Wallowing in the Shallows
Rebecca and Tori are joined again by Louise discuss two productions of Shakespeare's 'Midsummer Night's Dream'—the 1968 Royal Shakespeare Company version and the 2016 adaptation directed by David Kerr. We explore these productions of Shakespeare's 'A Midsummer Night's Dream', focusing on character analyses, particularly of Bottom and Theseus, and the dynamics of love and friendship within the story. We make some pop culture connections such as Dr. Who, Hannibal Lecter, and 'The Wizard of Oz.'MusicApache Rock Instrumental | by Sound Atelier; licensed from JamendoRemember the way | Mid-Air Machine | Free Music ArchiveThe Vipers Skiffle Group. 1957.
