Every time a plane flies low overhead we are now compelled to wonder if we’re watching the tool of imminent history fly by, while last August we might not have even noticed it.

Saval), Saval pulls a cord dangling at the front of stage left to release the overhead sheet, emphasizing how the 16 couplets mark the passage of 16 years. This fabric, the backdrop for the rest of the play, is painted in various shades of green to evoke the forest of Bohemia, the land to which the action now shifts...
