...postal service inspectors, recommend staff watch out for packages that appear out-of-place, or carry restricted endorsements like “personal,” “private” or “to be opened by addressee only.” Packages with protruding wires, uneven weight packages or return addresses that differ from the postmark city should also be handled with care...

Most performers have it written into their contracts that they do no more than one production of Hamlet in a day. More would be too draining, both emotionally and physically. And yet, Beale has been playing the Dane for nearly a year now. For some such a run might be no trouble at all. But for a performer...
