Thanks to excellent performances, a fine setting and great summer weather, our "A Midsummer Night's Dream" was a runaway success. Record audiences enjoyed the fun with us, and a great time was had by all. In her glowing review of the show, Madeleine Burton of the Herts Advertiser said "...Breakaway are entitled to be delighted with the production..." and congratulated the cast on their "fine performances". As one audience member put it, this is "Breakaway at its very best."
