Tim Supple has won the award for Best Director in the Theatrical Management Association Theatre Awards 2007, for his production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream.  Supple's production is spoken in seven languages with a cast of actors, dancers, acrobats and musicians from all parts of India and Sri Lanka.  When the production opened at the Swan Theatre in Stratford The Guardian wrote "What was highly impressive in India is sensational in Stratford: in its strangeness, sexuality and communal joy, this is the most life-enhancing production of Shakespeare's play since Peter Brooks" (click here to read the full reviews). The production, which  subsequently ran at the Roundhouse, is now touring the UK.
