> Much safer to set your plays "long ago in a distant galaxy," or, in > Shakespeare's case, upstate New York (Ithaca, Syracuse, etc.) Geoff, in my experience, the setting of modern Ithaca is indeed in a different galaxy peopled by an unusual race that dwell in ivory towers, in substance, not quite what they appear, and in proportion, too mean for the multitude of sizable egos. Shakespeare couldn't sell a play there that would fill seats. RA
