...summer Night's Dream is the lush poetry of Shakespeare and images of reverie and nightmare woven together carefully, like a speall. In Titania's bower, the faries who also appear as courtiers in the opening coreographed scenes and set the eerie tone of the show, develop insect-like personalities. And in a long, wicked laugh, the dark underside of Puck is revealed. The elaborate production has been weaved together by the people who brought The Beggar's Opera to Adams House last year.

One court is full of unbelievably rich, unbelievably ugly old duchesses, another revolves around a loathsome insect-like homosexual, the epitome of perversion. A third is the scene of bear-pit debauchery; here Casanova wins this contest: how many times can you came in an hour of fucking...
