I don't mean Stoppard can't do heartbreak and loneliness, just that he can't do it as well as Bennett.
As for a melding of intellect and emotion, 'Sunday In The Park With George', the recent UK production, is the most moving production I've ever seen. And it's just brainy, difficult old Sondheim going on about a brainy, difficult old painter. It can be done. But the right music always helps.
