Midsummer/2008

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
by William Shakespeare
Directed by August Schulenburg

“…the exploration is apparent in a production of engaging lucidity and immediacy. In addition to his imaginative and intelligent staging within the usual budgetary confines of Off-Off-Broadway, Schulenburg has melded his 20 actors into an effective ensemble.”

Ron Cohen, Backstage 2008

“Both immediately accessible and thematically adventurous, The Flux Theatre Ensemble’s production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream at the West End Theater, rewards audiences of all degrees of familiarity with the play. Guided by August Schulenburg’s supremely intelligent direction, the entertaining production is clear and easy to comprehend even for the uninitiated, but it’s also driven by fresh insights that will captivate those who are well-acquainted with Shakespeare’s oft-performed comedy.”

Patrick Lee, Theatermania 2008
