Subject:        Three Romps in a Row

Item from the 10/10 TLS newsletter:  "ARTS...Paul Bailey sees Pericles
reconfigured as a romp. Robert Shore reviews two new productions of
Romeo and Juliet--one set in a boys' dorm and one in a circus--and
wonders whether it will ever be played straight."

Indeed.  When there are so many variations, what happens to the theme?
