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 (15[1])theater titled for this action by the company Punchdrunk. (15[1])While doing this action, a character would “take forth paper, fold it, write upon ’t, read it, and afterwards seal it,” according to a Gentlewoman spying with a Doctor of Physic. Because he has (*) “murdered” this action, a man hears a voice say that he will (10[1])do this action “no more.” (10[1])A woman who enters doing this action hallucinates a “knocking at the gate” after she deliriously notes, “the Thane of Fife had a wife,” while rubbing her (10[1])hands together. For 10 points, (10[1])a guilt-ridden Lady Macbeth exclaims “out, damned spot” while walking and doing what action? ■END■
