The performance by the students
from the Romanian University is innovative for various reasons. It was
interesting for me how Shakespeare’s well-known play was re-interpreted in such
a free manner, both in its portrayals and its dramaturgy. A lyrical,
thought-provoking „sit-com”was created from the material, with strong
performances (which can still be developed). It is interesting how the actors
made these characters their own, and how they adapted them to themselves, while using various techniques which alienate the audience. The best acting
work was done by the actor playing Oberon, for he had both practical and
artistic tasks which are difficult to combine. His was a varied and
thought-through performance, though every other actor played in an exciting, laid
back but detailed way.
