He's now working on a comic book version of King Lear

Is he, now? Very neat -- I thought that his adaptation of Beowulf was excellent. I look forward to this.

One of these days, perhaps my frustrated perfectionism will lead me to direct something again myself.

If you do, I'll suggest again doing something other than Shakespeare. One of my main frustrations with the Mummers is the complete absence of the other playwrights. Granted, one has to look harder for good plays, but he wasn't the only decent playwright of his day.

I had really expected Pestle to break the ice, and get some other playwrights into the mix. I'm still disappointed that that didn't seem to sink in...
