What a load of utter tosh. “Theatre” is more than Shakespeare and “the classics”; and Will didn’t expect his audiences to know Greek mythology. Punch & Judy, pantos, *Mary Poppins* are all theatre. It’s like equating opera with Wagner, and ignoring Miss Saigon www.theguardian.com/film/2025/oc...
Theatre essentially relies on people having had the privilege of an education that allows them to believe that they’re entitled to go to the theatre. And that education has enabled them to understand perhaps the classics in a way that they make sense to them. It’s a relatively small group of people that is available to, and that is just quite wrong. It always bugged the hell out of me, much as I loved my time in the theatre, that we were essentially performing to a group of more or less privileged people.

Welp, this is … encouraging? I asked ChatGPT (ymmv).
No, actually, I’m not feeling reassured. On the bright side, in this instance most nuclear powers would restrict themselves to a Strongly Worded Letter, especially as none of them is allied with Iran.
If the targeted non-nuclear power is a strong ally of a nuclear power; and the power using nuclear weapons is a strong ally of a different nuclear power, how would that play out? You’re now describing the most dangerous and complex scenario in global nuclear politics: a proxy nuclear strike, where: • A non-nuclear country is attacked with nuclear weapons. • The victim is a close ally of one nuclear power. • The attacker is a close ally of another nuclear power. This kind of event could rapidly escalate into a global nuclear crisis, depending on how each side interprets the threat and how committed they are to their alliances. Strategic Summary In such a scenario, the world stands on the brink of full-scale nuclear war. The outcome hinges on: • The scale and target of the initial nuclear strike. • The clarity of alliance commitments (NATO vs. non-aligned). • The restraint or aggressiveness of the two nuclear powers backing each side. • The ability of diplomatic channels (e.g., UN, bilateral hotlines) to de-escalate. 🧨 In short: If a nuclear strike against a non-nuclear ally occurs, and the attacker is protected by another nuclear power, the world enters an extremely high-risk, fast-moving crisis—where everything depends on decisions made in hours or even minutes.
