Fun fact: PRIDE AND PREJUDICE might be closer to the present day (212 years) than it is to HAMLET (214–212 years depending upon whether it was first performed in 1599, 1600 or 1601). Almost precisely equidistant regardless.

I sat agog at the audition flashback, which proved not only to be dramatically superfluous but also kinda undermined any sense that Kelly had behaved badly. (Unless that was the intent, in which case Ugh, so it’s a poor choice regardless.)
