Thanks for your response. I tried to make clear that the sex of the characters didn't change; we were playing with theatrical conventions, where something always is both itself and something else.

You can argue about the rightness or wrongness of that, but it does reflect playwrights' concerns that it can be a very serious change to the work to have a female actor playing a male role, and vice versa.

You don't have to worry about that with public domain works like those of Shakespeare, of course. (No royalties on those, either!

Thank you for coming to see Hamlet, and for taking the time to post your comments.

Just a few words in response:

Your experience, of course, is your experience, so I won't try to argue about what you felt -- I'll only note that the overwhelming response of audience members, both those I know and those I don't, was different from yours, especially in regard to the acting. Many people commented about Emily Belvo's strong performance as Ophelia and Caitlin Eason's restrained performance of Horatio (until the floodgates of emotion open with Hamlet's death).
