And His Extremely Dysfunctional Family 3 silver bats http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtSlm4FAX24 15 08 07 - If you want to see Hamlet the play as a rock musical lampoon, set at the Kings court in dark Seattle, with Hamlet portrayed as having Goth tendencies; in an extensively cut version largely deviating from the original text, then see this show. Played largely for laughs, the Rembiko project score again with this bizarre offering of show business, rock opera, musical pastiche, loosely masquerading as Shakespeare. Kurt Kanazawa as Hamlet and Zoe Johnson FiFi Love (Ophelia) certainly make the time 'out of joint' as they sing and dance their way through this well received show. If you ever wanted to see hear, 'to be or not to be' set to 'Hello darkness my old friend;' or are curious to hear Ophelia sing, 'I can't live if living is without you,' then buy tickets at once! Lots of bodies litter the stage at the end, though you may still be laughing out loud to the climactic, Queens 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by then! By John Vassallo
