I don't really know what it is or how to define it, thus the confusing topic title. (Sorry).
Here's the idea: T'was on PBS a few weeks ago (at least in the Chicago area), and it appeared to be a depiction of hell. It was a very gray, dark, depressing scene. All the actors were stagnant (sp?), buried up to their necks in mud. (There might have been some giant pottery of some sort surrounding them as well, my memory's a little fuzzy). The actors were all speaking astoundingly quickly, and each actor's line rapidly transitioned into another actor's (in other words, there was very little or no pause between each actor's line).
I'm pretty sure Alan Rickman was in it (the British guy from "Dogma") as well, if that helps.
It was a very cool atmosphere, and I loved a lot of the lines. Sorry for the incredibly vague question, but it would be just lovely if someone could point out a title, author, anything of that sort.
Thank you!
