...resistance to happy endings and especially the mesmeric visual imagery are Ciulei's own. From the first moment, this Dream shows itself to be more about grim realities and revelatory nightmares. The captive Amazon Queen Hippolyta (Lorraine Toussaint), garbed as a soldier and coiffed with a Grace Jones-style Mohawk, stands mute yet defiant as the guards of Duke Theseus (Gary Reineke) surround her. They tear off her uniform and toss it onto a fire, revealing her torso clad in a confining, seductive undergarment: she is being turned from a woman into a girl.

...seemed to fit then the answer is clearly, yes. But I can’t imagine who it would be, but if somebody wanted to shave their head and have a mohawk, I might say, I’m not sure that’s the best hairstyle to run for office.
