Something Rotten in Denmark

Overview

A rollicking farce, this is a rehearsal of the original Hamlet in Shakespeare's time but with many anachronisms. The ghost is here and Hamlet is in drag. The story unfolds with hyperbole upon hyperbole and with gargantuan gestures of every sort. It ends with everybody in a kind of square dance tossing candy kisses to the audience, leaving them smiling from ear to ear. In Off-Off Broadway Festival Plays, 18th Series.
