How Would You Change The Theme Of Act 3 And Die In Act 4

I would change the dispute between Goneril and Regan in Act V, Scene III because it seems to have under developing flaws. For example, when Goneril slips the poison in the wine because she wants to harm her sister, it only takes a few minutes and/or lines until she begins to feel her body ache. In other words, Regan should have left the stage and returned when Albany gave the letter to Edmund because that would have given her more time to have felt the toxin. Not to mention that the “poison” in the play is an add-on feature in the production because Regan begins to feel “sick, O, sick” (Act 5:3; 97) instantly. And, instead of having Goneril casually go to the box and retrieve the poison, I would have her pull the poison from her sleeve/clothes.
