Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester has cancelled all performances of its production of A Midsummer Night's Dream after “a number of issues”.

Due to run from 12 September to 12 October, the production, set in the “vibrant tapestry of Manchester’s contemporary rave scene”, was initially postponed due to “ongoing technical reasons”.

Manchester Evening News also reported that an injury to a cast member contributed to the decision.

In an email to ticket holders offering them a refund, the Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation said, "There have been a number of issues with the production.

"Every effort was made to get the show on. We apologise to all customers who had bought tickets and will issue immediate refunds."
