...soaring life-style that perhaps brought the downfall of Martin Siegel. Besides keeping a posh Manhattan apartment, he and his wife built a spectacular cedar-and-glass beachfront home on Connecticut's Long Island Sound, complete with tennis court and gym. He typically commuted to work in a chartered helicopter. Siegel reportedly met with Boesky in New York City's Harvard Club in 1982 and bemoaned his compensation at Kidder, Peabody, which he viewed as inadequate even though it was already well into six figures.

...director's decisions are more questionable elsewhere. Although Bradford has interestingly restructured the Loeb stage to allow for the play's beachfront scenes, the set and costume design for this show is surprisingly bland. The strange dance numbers, though called for by Shakespeare's script, are less than entirely successful...
