| Correct. This was all hatched pre-Trump. The 2015 ending is similar to the current ending but the current is softened slightly, in that one can, with a WHOLE lot of mental gymnastics, consider this to be a suicide by Jud in that Jud walks, not away, but menacingly toward Curly and Laurie. And so, we move forward into a "beautiful day" but with the permanent stain of trampling on "the other" amongst us. The blocking of the reprise of the title number underscores this with Jud singing but totally separated from the rest of the cast. Agree this is not an R&H intention, but not so sure about Riggs. (though the Riggs ending is certainly not ambiguous in terms of Jud falling on his own knife). So much for the ending. Now someone, please, please, explain the ballet. |
