BUMP.
This is looking good. It's a little odd, a little "experimentl" - several of the roles are played by more than one persn at a time, to illustrate that the character has a more than one aspect to their personality. Hamet's soliloquies becaome heatd debates with himself.
My character, Polonius, however, is simply a boring old fuddy-duddy.
I'm very funny in the part.
You should come.
