Alexandra Bond's costumes in "The
Winter's Tale" were among the best I have
seen in a dramatic production Primarily
Mack, white, gold and red. the courtly garb fit
this athletic cast well
However, there were some disturbing
aspects to this production The most distress
ing was the chronic paraphrasing and changing
of the dialogue
Cuts I can accept, although the sheer number
of omitted lines robbed the play of dramatic ef
fect in certain places, particularly Act IV.
Scene iv But the number of lines which were
changed outright - 'de-Shakespeanzed.' if
you will - was puzzling
We're supposed to he a sophisticated univer
