What would Patrick Shakespeare himself have made of this? Of course he lived long before Mahatma Gandhi! The Bhagvad Gita for Pat Shakespeare was Warwickshire psilocybin? ( the 'midnight mushrooms' Prospero refers to?) Ben Kingsley is like Bono. (not a compliment as Bono is very very pretentious and pleased with himself. Osric?)
I saw The Dream two or three times 50 years ago and still remember every moment. Genius. Thank you Peter Brook and all the RSC
I saw this production at the Billy Rose Theater in NYC when I was 14. That was 50 years ago and I’ll never forget it.
thanks!

Shakespeare wasn't real, apparently a carpenter from Nuneaton was the true author.
Directors' Theatre. God help us. So pretentious.
