Wallace Shawn states the dilemma thus: A new version “that would sound to a contemporary audience like believable contemporary speech would have to be to a certain extent false to the feeling and atmosphere of the original text.” His chosen solution was, first, to rationalize that he was acting as a “collaborator” of the playwright. In such a collaboration, “it was probably inevitable that the role of the living collaborator would grow, while the role of the dead collaborator would not.” BY BOB VERINI
