i thought peter cushing was dead…
no…not dead…..just wooden like most Morwax performers…….
So, what did everyone think of “Carry On Hamlet ”
sorry. i can’t disagree more.
i saw the production and enjoyed it enormously. the crew and cast made the most of a small budget, unwieldy script and small theatre to make a usually unbearable play bearable.
special kudos go to sue, the gravedigger and Claudius. Superb performances, clever direction and inventive set design.
What an exceedingly good performance, you really put the “ham” into “ham”let! well done on that handsome young soul who played horatio, what lovely langurious locks and very attractive,never cut your hair, you would risk looking like that aging popster prince! kudos again beautiful costumes
