So why is Prior Walter...

...now stiched into the Bayeux Tapestry when he was previously written into the Domesday Book?

#2

So why is Prior Walter...

I've only seen versions of the script where the Bayeaux Tapestry is the reference.


"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."

So why is Prior Walter...

Thanks for that Kad.

I haven't read the script but I'm sure I've seen a production where the reference is to the Domesday Book and it seems to add a more ominous tone than the Bayeux Tapestry suggests.

#5

So why is Prior Walter...

I thought, at first, that was a question about Angels in America Dev!

#6

So why is Prior Walter...

It's an apple?! I've never clicked on the bigger image, because it's more fun to guess. I always thought it was a sea shell or prosthetic makeup/photoshop for some Kafka-esque show.

Well, lord knows Kushner is a tinkerer when it comes to Angels.

The earliest version of the script I read was the edition released in conjunction with the miniseries, and that one definitely referenced the Tapestry.

I own four published copies of the script including a hardback 2nd edition (the oldest one I have) and they all have the tapestry reference. That's not to say it was always the tapestry, I don't know, but for whatever it's worth.


A work of art is an invitation to love.

So why is Prior Walter...

The first two productions I saw were regional productions in the north of England in the pre-internet age so they could easily have made unofficial changes themselves.

Or maybe I dreamed it.

But the Domesday Book does make more sense since people are identified by name in there, whereas they aren't (as far as I'm aware) in the Bayeux Tapestry.

Thanks for checking your scripts folks!
