Alison; was that production of Midsummer Night's Dream at Stratford by the RSC, by any chance? I saw it also, about twelve summers ago (was at a study abroad program at Oxford and we always saw a number of Shakespeare plays for a course). Hilarious and wonderful! The following year the Hartford Stage Company did an epic production of Peer Gynt in which the scene with the Goblin King borrowed heavily on that Stratford costume design, dressing the fairies in ripped, soiled Victoriana...I recently saw a photo (I didn't know existed) of me performing a rather bawdy version of the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet; my leading man has most of his clothes off and I am not far behind! I am borrowing it from my friend's collection to get enlarged copies made (one to frame for a gift to "Romeo" who just got married).
The one thing I miss about acting is Shakespeare...
