OTHER CHANGES TO THE ENDING OF MEASURE FOR MEASURE.

OTHER CHANGES TO THE ENDING OF MEASURE FOR MEASURE. I looked up alternate endings for Measure for Measure and found this article by Laura Higgins on the Blogging Shakespeare website which gives a couple more:

*…”after the Duke’s final words a distressed Isabella turned downstage and stared desperately out into the auditorium to the sound of a prison door clanging shut …”

* “Peter Brook’s now famous instruction to Barbara Jefford as Isabella that she should pause for as long as she felt the audience could bear it before kneeling for Angelo’s life…”

Both endings do not change a word.
