disintegrates as he banters with his actor pal Richard
Burbage (Jeremiah Kissel, terrific as usual), who

"...By his side on this last journey is his confidant,
soul mate, and friend Richard Burbage– Shakespeare’s star
player who first acted Othello, Hamlet, and Lear onstage.

overflowing delight in the very playing, the punning, the
drama–Kissel devours the part and we relish it..."
