This problem takes a particularly acute form at the Loeb's Mainstage Theater, a beautifully appointed but somewhat cavernous theater in which many well-intended but poorly produced shows die agonizing deaths each year. For all its visual appeal (and Mainstage shows generally feature excellent sets), a play devoid of energy simply does not work there.

In one typically disturbing scene, the director reveals his views on sexual exploitation by sending his two leads to bed with a lovely village laundress who proves to be epileptic. Later, when the Blackshirts come to power, the movie's principal villains (Donald Sutherland and Laura Betti...
