A Midsummer Night’s Dream rehearsal

My first day in Edinburgh was quite busy. In the morning there were two tech rehearsals, one of them was A Midsummer Night’s Dream. It was great to see the cast and crew again. We had previously done a photoshoot for the play in Cambridge. During the summer the cast had been rehearsing in a barn in France, which sounded pretty amazing. Here is a selection of the photos from their rehearsal. They are in the order they were taken, some are from the play, and others are just staged or silly photos for fun.
