True. When a play is staged, the cultural assumptions, values, and tastes of the present production will inevitably be influenced by the context and culture in which it was originally created. Productions often strive to maintain some level of authenticity and faithfulness to the original play, but they are also inevitably influenced by the cultural and societal changes that have occurred since the play was first written.
