46.
Mechanicals Dance
The
double-quick-time, circus-like choral routine to brassy 'Big
Top' music makes an appropriately festive finale to the
play-within-the play-within-the-play.
By contrast, the
Bar version finale's musical routine (Bar 47.
Mechanicals Disco) is a disco number.
Note that the
School scene is played out under a 15th night moon which,
although clouded over, still seems to spill its light from
above the School backdrop into the muddy-white circle of
theatrical enchantment.
