Comment:        RE: SHK 11.0532 Cross-Cultural Casting

It is not really Cross-Cultural casting I suppose, but last summer I
directed HenryV for The Drama Group of Monaco here on the Cote d'Azur
and I did all the French Court scenes in French (I luckily had a
bilingual actor for Norfolk who could speak English in one court and
French in the other).  It seemed to work well, but then I was biased.
