Description …This is not a production for the subtleties of Shakespeare. It comes slapstick to the fore in broad-brush strokes, with actors often sacrificing meaning, the potential for irony, and opportunity for byplay. Still, it works, and where else can someone walking the dog or out on an evening jog unwittingly become an extra among the roses….
