I just saw an old interview with Patrick Stewart during his time at the Royal Shakespeare Company in which he said basically, as it's often said, that there is no one best way to do, or there is no original version of Shakespeare, and that's (part of) its brilliance.
Well then, how does a writer accomplish this? How does one create a story without having a original version of it in his own head, a specific angle he's pushing for?
Or is it that it is a matter of interpretation by the actors/director/etc, and Shakespeare actually is no different from Sophocles or Asimov or any other writer?
