Answer 1

The detail from Shakespeare’s play that signals that the play is meant to create a different feeling for the audience than the source material is **the choice to frame the fable as a play within a play**. This framing technique often adds a layer of humor and self-awareness, which can alter the audience's emotional response compared to a more straightforward telling of the fable.
