Thank you very much for all the detail. Theater is so ephemeral, this is a lot.

I think it's basically always a mistake to end a Shakespeare play on a grand poetic line. That's not how he does it. Ending Hamlet with "The rest is silence" is another example. Just No.

But the rest sounds very interesting. Though I often wonder if producers shouldn't consider how their interpretations would strike somebody who had never seen the play before.
