Irony: Actor portraying Brutus In ‘Julius Caesar’ Stabs Self
Never let a method actor play Brutus:
Julius Caesar lay dead and Brutus was talking to his co-conspirators about swords and blood when he paused and excused himself, saying “I seem to have stabbed myself.”
Aspen actor/director Kent Hudson Reed accidently cut his leg open with the knife he was using in an outdoor performance of “Scenes from Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar” on Wednesday.
He tried to carry on, “but my boot was filling up with blood and I was flubbing my lines, wondering if I was going to pass out, wondering if the audience could see the blood.”
Good thing he wasn’t playing Hannibal Lecter

Gotta give him credit though he was willing to bleed to death to finish the play.
