English term or phrase: how many options the coffin opens
Testo teatrale israeliano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Un attore cerca di spiegare al suo regista l'utilità di avere una bara nello spettacolo "Romeo e Giulietta".

See how many options the coffin opens. In the ball scene it could be a small podium (he climbs on the coffin)- the actors
speaking could be higher than the dancers. In the duel you could stand the coffin horizontally, like a closet, and then you could stab Tybalt from behind.

La mia proposta:

Guarda quante opzioni ti fornisce la bara.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie

See how many options the coffin opens.
pensa solo alle infinite possibilità che questa bara ci dà/offre! (o "darebbe/offrirebbe")


Explanation:
"Ci", perché mi sembra riferito sia agli attori, sia al regista (che del resto lavorano insieme).
