Midsummer Night's stream

Available for over a year

Bottom and the other Rude Mechanicals are going to be played by amateurs throughout the country in a new Royal Shakespeare Company production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Erica Whyman, the Deputy Artistic Director of the RSC, was faced with the challenge of how to rehearse with these 14 different amateur groups across the UK. Our reporter Marilyn Rust joined the Common Lot theatre company in Norwich for their live streamed rehearsal. (Photo: Streamed rehearsal. Credit: BBC)
