Hello, Supporters of the Festival Shakespeare Company. This is to advise you that the production of Midsummer Nights Dream at St Anne's Well gardens advertised in the 2015 Brighton Fringe Brochure Has nothing to do with this company despite performing under the same name and in the same venue.

The Argus called it "Exhilarating", Fringe Review said " A Triumph of acting and production" and "some serious pizzazz" though Broadway Baby. Can you afford to miss it?

It is really important that we get behind this venture and dream of a great supporter and friend of this company. I urge everyone to support in anyway they can.

Friends of a playwright who died at the weekend have promised they will turn his dream of an open-air theatre into a reality.
