2019.3.7. The Island in Winter at Bag'nBaggage

3/7, Thursday. Not sure I like this play at Bag'nBaggage, an adaptation of Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale. Feels like a hastened opera, with simplified but dramatic twist and turns. The play is sometimes in English, sometimes in Spanish, with super-title (not of everything that was spoken). This made it harder to understand the plot. I would say it's a decent adaptation, just need another hour to make the story flow better. I like using Cuba revolution as the backdrop.
