hamlet

i did this monologue from hamlet in college...and instead of setting it in old-tyme denmark, i set it in a college dormitory. instead of it being a king in a play-within-a-play, i made it the entire performance, i made it anyone who's ever wondered whether their "love" meant anything or not.

i was just thinking about it today, and how much i liked the text of the monologue. it's such a great expression of...resigned, necessary distrust.
