Title: Tedious brief Mess
Review: This is a way too precious and over directed mess of a production. The play has had over half an hour slashed from the script, and what they do bother to perform has been over designed and over directed. Alex Jennings and Lindsay Duncan are the only at all known performers in it and I predict the rest will remain obscure. What was Adrian Noble (Normally an excellent director) and the RSC thinking hiring these ...? It features the most unattractive Bottom I've seen since Dennis Franz's nude scene on "NYPD Blue"! The addition of a child "Dreaming" the play is ghastly and intrusive. In the "Pyramus & Thisbe" scene, which SHOULD be the comic highlight, they play Pyamus's death for pathos and it's beyond embarrassing. Skip this turkey and see the Kevin Kline film instead, which is gorgeous, well acted and sexy, although they play Thisbe's death for pathos. MISTAKE!!!!! I've seen amateur productions that were better than this RSC-produced wreck.
