1) Directing the play is easier now than the early days with the original cast.
2) Directing the play is easier now than the early days, with the original cast.
3) Directing the play is easier now than the early days when we had the original cast.
4) Directing the play is easier now than the early days, when we had the original cast.
Are all of the above sentences grammatical and correctly punctuated?
Are they idiomatic?
Which mean:
a) There were the early days with the original cast and then there were the
later days with the original cast and we are comparing now with the former
and which mean:
b) In the early days we had the original cast and now things are better than
the early days
I think '4' corresponds to 'b'. I am not sure the other three work.
Gratefully,
Navi
