...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.

It's like putting on a pair of glasses: everything is clearer and sharper and more vivid...
John, whose business attire consists of a buzzcut and hoodie, takes in requests on the phone, matching up his 65 strippers and 15 drivers to his shows. Three computers surround him. One is for the company website’s server, one for booking shows, and one for MapQuesting locations as far away as the border between New York and Canada...
