“I’ve got a deposit on a house, a minister and church reserved, and I have to shake hands with a man who’s engaged to my fiancée!”

by David Hare, directed by Lou Contey

“This government’s appalling, but on the other hand, given what’s going on, it’s just stupid not to go and grab some dough for yourself.”

“If thou didst ever thy dear father love

“Eternity is a terrible thought. I mean, where’s it going to end?”

…wait a minute…aren’t Rosencrantz and Guildenstern the two courtier-spies in Hamlet—the ones whose fateful trip to England is polished off with a single line in the fifth act: “Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead?” Yes and no.
