Woo~! Lit blog!
Hey all this is Vicky!! Constructive (teacher verified) procrastination in progress.
Okay, reviews I suck at, so I'll keep this a one-liner and get to the point quickie. TNT Theatre Britain's Hamlet at Raffles Jubilee Hall was niiiiice. (Yeah yeah the word Nice should be banned as should Interesting and Non-Entity come on give the girl a break.)
ANYYYWAYS, I think that The Reduced Shakespeare Company's version on YouTube is the damn funny lah, go watch!
Ahem. I mean I do so think that the RSC did a wonderful comedy/parody on Shakespeare's Hamlet, and does so four times (yes four indeed) in such an exquisite time frame as a little more than 35 minutes.
RSC: Hamlet (1 of 4)
RSC: Hamlet (2 of 4)
RSC: Hamlet (3 of 4)
RSC: Hamlet (4 of 4)
Awesome 'innit? (Thanks to Jacq for introducing to Lizzie for showing to me! :D)
Also, they did The Othello Rap, and other abridged Shakespearean works, but I figured we'll save that for next time, like when we start on it or something.
Til' next time!
Cheers,
Vicky!
P.S. Miss Lim is this blog for J1s only or for all lit students ah?

Very nice indeed.
Dennis showed me this video from youTube as well on Hamlet. I think it was called the "One Minute Hamlet". Do check it out, I was humored by it. Only thing is that it's slightly more than a minute.
