NYTimes.com: As the director Julie Taymor started imagining her new production of “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” she made two choices early on: She wanted children to populate the fairy world, and all the fairies to stay earth-bound. “I had no interest in flying,” she said. “That was definitely something I didn’t want to do.”

It was great to step into the mind and work of Julie Taymor for a few moments. After previously reading the article about her legal debacle for Spider-Man I was surprised to see she was working again but after reading through the whole article it makes more sense. I did not previously know that she designed as well but it completely explains how beautiful her shows are. This is actually very exciting to me because I am studying design now but I really want to direct also but have always been somewhat nervous about it since I do not have a strong formal acting background. I am more interested in Julie's background now and plan to look into it further.
