This rollicking comedy is directed by Dr. Jim Al-Shamma, and this is his
first production at A&M-Commerce.

Dr. Al-Shamma says of his direction, “I have taken a highly physical
approach to the acting, which the actors have embraced with great
enthusiasm. For example, when the lovers quarrel in the woods, they
actually physically tangle. We are also taking a theatrical approach to the
staging – scene changes take place in front of the audience and actors
address the audience directly. The goal is to pull the audience viscerally
into the experience of the play.”
