Um, no. It just has (sorcerously-induced) shipwrecks, monsters, and invisible spirits. *thwack* Yeah, I know, joke. But an irritating one.
Speaking of which, I blew it by not going to see Julie Taymor's film when it first turned up at the Icon on Roosevelt (the only place it played in Chicagoland). By this past Thursday, when I was actually willing to contemplate shlepping downtown to see, they only had a 9:30 pm show. *pout*

The script is fabulous. Even the lines that aren't stolen from Shakespeare plays are in blank verse.
...I just had a mental image of a Slings and Arrows episode in which Oliver had scheduled a production of "Return to the Forbidden Planet", so Geoffrey has to direct it. Hilarity would ensue.
It so very, very would. :-D
