About the play "Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead"
"The play concerns the misadventures and musings of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters from William Shakespeare's Hamlet who are friends of the Prince, focusing on their actions while the events of Hamlet occur as background. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead is structured as the inverse of Hamlet; the title characters are the leads, not minor players, and Hamlet himself has only a small part. The duo appears on stage here when they are off-stage in Shakespeare's play, with the exception of a few short scenes in which the dramatic events of both plays coincide." from Wikipedia.
Honestly, that reminds me of the CiW vs Lonelygirl15 antagonism. Either that or: are we looking at the actions of two people while more dramatic events unfold backstage?
*morning thougths* Have a good y'all!
