Response to the Lantern Theater

I thought the play was really good. I was impressed and stayed up the whole time! The actors were excellent and really did a wonderful job playing there characters. I really enjoyed how the interacted with the audience not with words but with there actions. The stage was very created and different. I never seen a play in a theater like that. I really understand Hamlet better after seeing the play. I was impressed with how they memorized all those lines and I didn't see or hear not one error in the entire play. That was amazing and is a wonderful talent. I know that took a lot of practice and hard work and I applaud everyone that played a part in making the play one to remember.

Hamlet II

In Act II I noticed how Shakespeare built-in a play inside his play that shares a similar plot with Hamlet. This played a major part in understanding the play. When he sees the player’s performance and the play that they are doing he can’t help but to notice that it directly connects to his situation. He is unwell in the sense that he watches this actor have the courage to do what is right and he is unable to do what is right. Hamlet shouldn't have let the actor get to him because he is only acting, not purposely of course. If he was in Hamlet's situation he would probably do the same thing and keep the anger inside. The play was only helpful to show Hamlet the right way to go. He came up with a plan to help gain revenge on his evil uncle. He really just needs proof if his uncle really killed his father.
