I'm tired of modern hamlet, guys. If you want it set in a different period so badly, go with the fucking idk 1810s. 1000s. 1940s. 2260s.
#I think the best time screwy adaptation would be original time period with more and more absurd anachronisms as it goes on#I want a hundred percent period accurate clothing and set dressing except:#Hamlet is listening to Wake Me Up When September Ends by Green Day in act 1 scene 2 on his discman#The acting troupe is wearing spirit Halloween costumes for no reason.#One room for no reason has a bunch of those motivational posters you see in classrooms and offices that actually drain your life more#Laertes wears a backwards baseball cap#Polonius is seen drinking a miller lite in multiple scenes#Throughout the show actually I want Hamlet to me openly listening to 2000s emo music#Ophelia enters every scene on a skateboard#Nobody mentions it#my posts#hamlet#Rosencrantz and guildenstern are both wearing crocs. One has it in sports mode#Wait no.#Heelys.#Horatio smokes a fat blunt after Hamlet dies in his arms#Fortinbras does wear entirely modern clothing#And none of these things can be acknowledged by the other characters
