Also, my brilliant idea that I do not have the connections to make happen but somebody might: Get the Marvel actors together to do a similar over-Zoom reading of That Scottish Play. That's a fundraiser for the Biden campaign. BUT. IN ADDITION.

The CASTING is also a fundraiser. Want to see RDJ playing the Title Role? Donate to the Pennsylvania Democrats. Maybe you want to see Chris Evans? Donate to the Ohio Dems. Want ScarJo as Lady M? Iowa Dems. Or possibly Brie Larson? Arizona Dems.

(It also wouldn't have to be that play! But it's public domain, I had to read it twice in school plus I've seen it performed at least three times, one of them because my mother was playing the role of the First Witch, so I think of it as generally pretty familiar.)
