I wonder if they ever had a time in Ancient Rome when word would reach the forum about a play about Hercules or Aeneas, everyone would groan and roll their eyes over YET ANOTHER heroic play and Martinus Scorsesius would stand up and say, “Oh, they’re not really theater anyway!

Oh Martinus Scorsesius will you ever learn?
Yeah, look—I love being told a play is nineteen hours long and needs to be seen ONLY under the proper conditions, but sometimes I just wanna see Cloelia whoop some Etruscan butt!
