My overall impression
I wasn’t shocked by the ‘brave’ nudity that many reviewers have lauded. Truth be told, I was kind of bored. Because beyond the physicality of the piece – which was compelling to me only when no words were uttered – I was left cold. The core problem is de Sade’s text, or perhaps this translation of it. I am led to understand that his work intended to illustrate the politics of class and sexuality. Unfortunately, I did not see much of that in this production, which seemed to play up the titillation and downplay the themes.
