Sorry, I know it has nearly two years since you posted here but...

lucasromanholli,
You're on to something! I've seen both Persona and Opening Night and definitely see the influence the former had on the latter. Persona, I can see, is an allegory on the analytical strains, emotionally and mentally, an actor/actress must take in preparation for a role. Opening Night is sort of along those lines except more about the business of showbusiness and theatre than Persona, which was more abstract and convoluted.
