Destroy an original Picasso OR read Hamlet naked in front of live audience?
Let's say the Picasso is just a sketch worth a couple thousand dollars that you own, so it wouldn't be a criminal act, but it is signed. Hamlet naked is in a college auditorium that is standing room only.

1. Hamlet. I'm against destroying art of any kind.
Even if it's art that I don't particularly care for personally. It's about being civilized as opposed to being a visigoth. Plus, I've got a really nice frame for a 42 year-old man, so I don't mind showing it off.

6. I'm not slamming Picasso's art.
Even though it's not to my liking. On a personal level, though, I have to agree with the song: "Pablo Picasso.....was an asshole!"

I propose eating paint balls and laxatives and attempting to replicate a Jackson Pollack work onstage. Performance shart.

7. I'd rather see naked Hamlet with a full cast.
... and how often do you get a standing room only crowd for a reading of Shakespeare?

I own a Picasso sketch and I'm reading Hamlet naked in front of an SRO audience. You got any more of these predicaments?

14. What if I stood naked in front of that live audience reciting Hamlet while destroying an original...
Picasso. That would make it worth my effort.
