I dreamt up a whole Shakespeare play last night that doesn’t even exist and I’m like wow, it had all the beats. Set in Italy, had merchants and rich men, giving people false information to trick them into locations, there was a play within a play which was used to stage a murder… But I never worked out how it resolved and that’s when I realised I didn’t actually know it and it wasn’t real.

#Like it’s like the play existed in my dream. And I was explaining the plot to someone like it was any Shakespeare play #And I kept forgetting or not being clear on details while explaining #And that made me go wait this play is made up in my dream I’m dreaming this explanation about a dreamt up play #Also I was in the play as an assistant to the merchant. Who was being played by Nick Kroll.#And it’s like oh this plot was all very simon the devious faking a house renovation to get what he wants #But in Italy. And Con O’Neill was playing the rich man who gets killed in the play within a play #I remember in my dream explaining the story to someone and being like the play within a play really heightens the story and the tension #It’s real to me
