From the day it came into existence, to our times, many a Nintendo fan believed that the third Mario Bros. episode was just a play, and according to the man behind the plumber, it actually was!
The hanging platforms, the shadows on the background, the curtain opening, the end of the stage that was similar to exiting a set... Yup, it was just that; a play.

So, it turns out that after Super Mario Bros., Mario's second adventure was just a dream, and the third was a "simple" theatre performance. Miyamoto-san sure is a creative fellow...
