There is almost nothing worse than musical theater lyrics that describe what is happening and are not what is happening. Have you ever seen a Shakespeare soliloquy DESCRIBE the action rather than BEING the action? No? Then get thee likewise!
oh I guess some shakespeare speeches (not soliloquies but speeches) that are like messenger reports, kinda. And there's the big enobarbus one that is sort of a description of Cleopatra I guess. But not a description of what's happening to HIM.

and the enobarbus speech IS the action bc it's about the effect of describing this Egyptian to these Romans. ANYWAY.
