William Shakespeare’s TWELFTH NIGHT [Re-done] is a very diligent attempt to put into ’Modern Dress’ Shakespeare’s original play. The process was arduous, and it involved trying to retain Shakespearean form at least hugely. [One salient (and silly?) deviation from basic faithfulness could be the apparently capricious altering of ’the Elephant’ to ’Camel’s Inn.’] A quite pervasive idea in terms of all practical considerations was something very much like the careful restoration of an old photograph or an old painting. After all, Shakespeare lived near London over 400 years ago, and his language decidedly is not our language. The passages in Verse were mostly not very altered in terms of sheer length, whereas for possible clarity’s sake the ~Re-done~ Nonverse aspect often tends to be more fully wordy than was true in Shakespeare’s own rendition.

    Jonathan Norton
       “Some shows have warnings for strobe lights. Some have them for loud gunshots.  Some for smoke.   MISSISSIPPI GODDAMN, a new play by Jonathan Norton should have one for intensity.   Granted, anyone attending a play about civil rights pioneer Medgar Evers set in 1963 Jackson, Mississippi, should expect some strife. Blood in the battle for racial equality is no surprise, but f...

    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick
       “It seems to me that for fertility in droll inventions, the perpetual outpouring of unforeseen misunderstandings, for the inexhaustible gaiety of dialogue, Feydeau’s new play is superior to everything he’s written so far. The most astonishing thing is the sureness with which everything is controlled, explained, justified, in the most extravagant buffoonery. The cross-purpose...

       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...

  • 120 Standard Limericks
    Bruce Howard Hamilton
    120 'STANDARD' LIMERICKS is a sort of sequel to another book by the same author. An absolute wish could be that this compilation might offer decided stylistic improvements over its predecessor. Each included limerick consists of a couple of carefully measured sentences. Ideally those should seem about as contrapuntally interrelatable as the octave and sestet in very classical s...
