Norm Diamond finds surprisingly interesting politics in two major productions in the Portland arts scene: a dance performance and a Shakespeare play. From a recognition of racism and the horrors of late capitalism in Petrushka to a new take on sexual politics in A Midsummer’s Night Dream, thoughtful politics are appearing in unexpected places.
