Teresa Perkins -- 'My Entertainment World'

"...the Midsummer ensemble nicely compliments one another and embraces their respective roles with satisfying aplomb. If you are in search of some quality Shakespeare this summer...Hamlet Isn’t Dead’s exuberant rendition of A Midsummer Night’s Dream is a delightful way to lose yourself for an afternoon...."

Directed by Emily C.A. Snyder/David Andrew Laws

"Hamlet Isn't Dead's production...doesn't try to make Shakespeare's most violent play anything that it's not, letting this theatrical slasher shine in all its blood-stained glory."
