The face journey Patrick Page did around the line, "Then doubt comes...Doubt comes in," was so exciting. I was buzzing in my seat.
The way he starts off the stanza just villain-plotting against Orpheus, and then he looks at Persephone and hears himself and realizes he's talking about his own shortcomings as much as Orpheus's, and he just kind of slackens in some combination of shame, resignation, understanding, and says, "Then doubt comes. Doubt comes in," with this clear subtext of, "Oh, I get it now." Perfectly setting up the "It's time for spring," moment.
