Okay, folks, how's this for an idea?
Synchronized Shakespeare.
The play is blocked in a 3/4 round, but the characters are all double-cast, and appear onstage with a two-meter gap between them. Everyone must say their lines in perfect unison, with the same intonation.
You want to see Hamlet in parallel, don't you? You never thought about it before, but now that you have, you want to see it, for the sword-fight scenes, if for no other reason.
That, and the death of Polonius in stereo.
