Bard well done ; Theatre Exchange delivers the magic of classic Hamlet
2002
Overview
For those of you who didn't pay attention in English class, the plot centers on the travails of Hamlet (Gray Hawks), an everyman thrust into an extraordinary situation when it's revealed to him that his father, the former King of Denmark, was murdered by Claudius (Joe Gallison), the king's brother and Hamlet's uncle. Claudius has now married Gertrude (Jemila Ericson), the king's widow and Hamlet's mother, and ascended to the throne. The meat of the play is Hamlet's quest for revenge. There's something New Agey about this Hamlet, a mood dictated by the music, which has Asian lutes, Native American flutes and synthesizer-distorted chanting spanning eons to create the impression of a timeless dimension where it's all Hamlet all the time. COURTESY OF PATRICIA ROSEMAN. Gray Hawks as Hamlet and [Andre Walker] as Horatio star in Hamlet at Thalian Hall.
