Troilus and Cressida
Many were shocked by this production, with “its parade of pulchritude (male and female) and its predilection for black leather loincloths” and “massed male bodies all but naked, the only two females topless and two other persons in constant, nauseating homosexual embraces”. The American accents weren’t popular either.
