CHANGING MEASURE FOR MEASURE—A TOPLESS SCENE FOR A NUN.

CHANGING MEASURE FOR MEASURE—A TOPLESS SCENE FOR A NUN. My brother also mentioned another production of Measure for Measure which made a radical change in the play—again reflecting the discomfort that directors and audiences feel about the play. Shakespeare’s play turns on Claudio’s tragic choice between his sister’s honor and his own death. Before that, however, his sister Isabella, who is in the process of becoming a cloistered nun, has made her own choice that her chastity, and avoiding mortal sin, is more important than Claudio’s life. Elmer was bemused by a scene in the second production in which Isabella took off her top.
