Line 225:
* There are lots of examples from [[William Shakespeare|Shakespeare]]. Is [[Hamlet]] mad, or just faking it? Does Gertrude drink the poisoned wine deliberately (suggesting a greater understanding of the situation than indicated in the text)? Is Banquo's ghost really there during the feast, or is [[Macbeth]] hallucinating? Is [[The Merchant of Venice|Shylock]] a truly nasty piece of work, or is he an [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]? Is [[Twelfth Night|Antonio]] [[Ho Yay|in love with Sebastian]]? Just how straight is [[The Taming of the Shrew|Kate's]] end-of-play [[Values Dissonance|lecture on wifely submission]] played? And so on ad infinitum. It all depends on the director and the actor.
* This was the downfall (or, rather, show stopper) of Adolf Hitler in ''[[The Producers]]''.
* In ''[[Hairspray]]'', we have the issue of Penny's voice. In some plays, she's a geeky girl with a voice to match only changing at the end. However in others (like in 2016's play with Ariana Grande), she has just as good a voice as Tracey and Amber, with the only thing changing at the end being her appearance.
