One Play, Two Kinsmen, Three Dimensions, No Fourth Wall.

Two best friends, skilled fighters both, fall in love with the same girl while stuck in prison. Their friendship takes a beating as they try over and over to prove who is most worthy to have her. Part As You Like It, part A Midsummer Night's Dream and based on Chaucer's "A Knight's Tale" from The Canterbury Tales, The Two Noble Kinsmen leaves the outcome hanging until literally the bitter end.
