Great find. I'm with the producer character on this one. I remember watching "The Tempest" at Stratford-on-Avon and thinking what a piece of hackwork it was. Pretty good hackwork, but still. Maybe it was a bad production, but have you ever noticed how whenever you see bad Shakespeare, it's always the actors who get blamed, not Shakespeare?
