Trivia[]

- The character of Mercutio was based off of Nate giving him the power to turn into steel.
- Nate complains when Mercutio is hit after transforming back to normal which is a common complaint fans have with Nate not always in his steel form.
- The play still kept Shakespeare's use of iambic pentameter.
