Question

In a play, a man says that this action “knits up the raveled sleave of care” and calls it “chief nourisher in life’s feast.” The film noir-esque McKittrick Hotel provides the setting for a work of immersive theater titled for this action by the company Punchdrunk. While doing this action, a character would “take forth paper, fold it, write upon ’t, read it, and (15[1])afterwards seal it,” according to a Gentlewoman spying with a Doctor of Physic. Because he has (*) “murdered” this action, (10[1])a man hears a voice say that he will do this action “no more.” A woman who enters (10[1])doing this action hallucinates a “knocking (-5[1])at the gate” after (10[1])she deliriously notes, “the Thane of Fife had a wife,” while rubbing her hands together. For 10 points, a guilt-ridden Lady Macbeth exclaims “out, damned spot” while walking and doing what action? ■END■ (10[1])
