@EIDOSeidos Whether they've been in Jack's place or not, no one should be able to watch this scene without dropping him a tear. Of course, when you have been in Point's position, this scene seems even more emotional. I am convinced that I'm in Point's position at the moment (then again, I've never had the luckiest love life.)
At the end there I can't help thinking that the stage manager opened the curtains for curtain call, realized that the cast hadn't cleared the stage yet, and closed them again.
As I get older I've come to think of Yeomen as 'the thinking man's Mikado'. Jack Point should only be told that, even though he is more than willing to drop dead for Elsie, SOME MAN SOMEWHERE IS SICK OF HER SH*T . Colonel Fairfax will come heartily to agree with this proposition no later than about day 31 of their honeymoon. Not to be cynical or anything (it goes without saying).

The guy playing Jack in this version is awesome.

How many times have I been in Jack Point's place? I can't watch a good performance of this without crying like a woman. WTF
