Wow!  I'll just echo what Elle said... This really is a stunning image to imagine!

I'll third that. This will make me sound incredibly ignorant, but because I'm more of a film buff than a theater one, I tend to think of film as being able to do more to dramatize a story than theater. But this is a wonderful example of how sometimes just the opposite is true.

Great idea! Much more affecting than a "split screen" in a film!
