...performers, the "mechanicals" remain nearly identical to, and equally adept as, last spring's company, with the welcome addition of Chris Clemenson, who makes an impassively cheerful Snout and a ponderously funny Wall. The male lovers, Stephen Rowe's Demetrius and Eric Eliee's Lysander, are as energetic a pair as they were last season; new faces animate the female roles--Cynthia Darlow as Hermia and Cherry Jones as Helena.

A riot breaks out between native whites and Chicano zoot suiters, and General Joseph Stilwell-yes, the General Joseph Stilwell (Robert Stack)-is in charge of restoring order. Meantime, a periscope, looking suspiciously like the snout of a shark, pokes out of the Pacific, and a submarine commanded by Toshiro Mifune slithers toward shore. Oh, my God! The Japanese! Then . . . but Spielberg refuses to reveal the rest, other than to say he hopes it is funny. In other words, Animal House meets John Wayne, and just...
