Directed
by Emily Mattina, Hamlet
is presented as a black and white movie from the first half of the 20th
Century written and directed by the title character and happening in
his mind, complete with flashbacks, flash-forwards, and a sense of
drama heightened by music. Like the mind that created him, Hamlet
has an uncanny ability to manipulate and entice an audience, incite an
actor, and motivate a director through language. As the tragic
hero of our play and the director and author of the movie, Hamlet
exhibits an unearthly sense of poetry, an imagination past compare, a
delicious yet acerbic sense of wit and word play, and a deep melancholy
coupled with an intrinsic knowledge and delight in the existence of the
universe. Who better to represent the author than his own hero?
