"Ball vs Feather - Question Game"
clip 3 of 6
Rosencrantz stumbles upon the Theory of the Speed of Gravity being a Constant, but it is foiled by Guildenstern witnessing his flawed demonstration which actually exhibits the Law of Aerodynamics.
The Question Game is played on an early badmitten/tennis court as a spoof on the basis of Socratic & even Shakespearean Dialogue; and the "play within a play" concept parallel to "The World's a Stage" and "Life's a Game".

Post-Modern play in the tradition of "Waiting for Godot" by Sam Beckett
