High concept Directors are the scourge of Shakespeare. The fact that this Director thinks it is her job to “wake up the classics” should result in her termination on the spot. Who do you think you are? Shakespeare is ahead of you, you clown. You have no idea what you are doing. The play is beyond your concept of modern.
It might be an unpopular opinion nowadays, but I'm fully behind you. I've seen way too much Shakespeare ruined by directors of this ilk. As for this particular director, no less an authority than Stephen Sondheim has complained about her 'improvement' of "Porgy and Bess".
Where can i watch it
Omg Rudy Pankow?! HECK YEAH!
