1) I would prefer something like this done in-person, but I can kind of foresee certain pitfalls, though they're all probably fairly easily avoidable. If the play itself is being conducted through the /say and /emote channels, audience reactions are going to kind of muddy the waters and make it hard to follow what's going on. A temporary linkpearl could be issued to everyone in attendance to kind of circumvent this issue, so long as only the folks on stage made use of it, and all words and emotes that were part of the play could be run through this linkshell. This is probably more preferable than asking everyone to eliminate the use of /say and /emote for the duration. But I think the experience would be more real if it were conducted in-person and thus giving small groups in the audience the opportunity to react accordingly.
2) I would find an original work more interesting, but I think either way would be all right. Or perhaps some kind of a blending of the two. Maybe start off with Romeo and Juliet, for instance, and go a completely different route - perhaps Romeo gets chased by a goobbue at some point or whatever!
3) I would attend something like this, definitely. But probably as an audience member. It would take a lot for Eva to perform/act publicly.
4) My character's late fiancé was a writer and has a plethora of unpublished poems, plays, and short stories that I'm sure she would be happy to contribute, so I'm very willing to help from this angle, but Eva is not much of a performer herself, but would love to be in the audience for something like this, and I would love to see it work. Another thought I had would be to kind of set up "tables" for people in the audience. That is, put everyone into parties in which they can quietly talk (in /p channel) and discuss what's happening on stage and such. Just a thought~
