Journal Article
Hamlet
2012
Overview
The women looked stunning in Mad Men-esque cinched-waist dresses and coiffed hair; the men's costumes included wonderful details, such as Polonius's purple silk pocket square and Rosencrantz's argyle sweater. During Claudius's \"auspicious and dropping eye\" speech, Estrella stared offinto the middle distance with a kind of unfocused horror, giving the impression that his mental state was less a direct result of his mother's overhasty marriage to his uncle and more a result of the collision between this event and his already-present psychological demons. Many Shakespeare productions (such as Sam Mendes's recent Richard III) have hearkened back to this era as a means of demonstrating Shakespeare's relevance to the present, but, as Sullivan did not consistently reference this political/historical context throughout the production, its presence at the play's end seemed superfluous.
