A role so good...

Mad props to seminal improv teacher Del Close who willed his skull to Chicago's Goodman Theatre when he died 4 years ago so he could play Yorick in their productions of Hamlet.

In centuries past, actors doing so was the theatre's only source of skull props, so it's not a wholly original move, but still very cool.
