A Midsummer’s Night Dream: A review

A Midsummers Night Dream is champion of Shakespeargons most customary comedies. There are thousands of adjustments of the exercise originated from truly contrasting interpretations of the schoolbook. In this particular adaptation, the director, Joan Ollé, opted to focussing on the theme of the eroticism and the unique side of the play. The eroticism is mainly represented by hoc identify puck and titanium dioxide and arse. Pucks movements are real brutish and sexual as well.

It is true, though, that Demetrius and Lysander looked moderner than what I expected them to be. Moreover, one of them carries a scooter and they fall apart a skirt and shorts, which is what little male child wears. Comparing them to the girls, they look old than they, and their clothes reinforce that aspect, since they wear transparent or disclosure dresses. Puck is more sexualized than in the text, and in some vista it looked as if he was in some kind of relationship with Oberon, but it was not very clear. Gender politics are not really made evident in this version since the director wanted to focus more on new(prenominal) aspects. However, I missed the skill of Hyppolita. In Shakespeares text there is a little(a) resistance to marry from Hyppolitas part that was not very represented i n this adaptation. The young couples were the ones who were more important...
