Hamlet as a teenage girl, and the ghost. KDC, Lion and Unicorn Theatre 2013

The cast seems all around perfect, I mean, female R&G who also play the gravediggers? And damn, the Hamlet/Ophelia dynamic sounds amazing:
"They approach each other as giggly best friends who are exploring crossing that line between friendship and sexual attraction. Their relationship is not just about how they relate to each other and becoming more sexually aware as part of their coming of age, it’s also about dealing with a certain amount of teenage experimentation in the most innocent of ways. There’s no doubt they love each other; but the nature of this love is changeable. Is it the love of a deep close friendship, or is it a romantic love?
— The acting is very well done across the board, but the strength is in the lead roles. Hamlet handles her role impeccably well; her tears are moving, her social interactions sulky yet brilliant. Ophelia is equally delightful. Stunningly beautiful with clever comedic timing. She is also a wise teenager, who like Hamlet, delights in out-smarting the adults around her, until her madness – also flawlessly handled- drives her to her watery grave.” (x)
you know what we need? we need queer romcoms. we don’t need any more sad lifetime movies about queers who end up dead or heartbroken. we don’t need any more real life stories. we need queer romcoms.
- ladies falling in love after they stumble against each other on the subway.
- guys who work for opposite companies and bicker at the meetings until one of them kisses the other.
- a trans lady bartender who always ends up having deep philosophical chats with a drunk girl who gets dumped every week by a different person.
- an asexual journalist falling in love with the football player xir interview every week after the matches, and cute make outs and a lot of awkwardness around the ace thing with the fight and the ridiculous gesture of love and the make up.
- happy fluffy endings after a lot of dumb cute shit happening.
- queer rom coms !!!

SO MANY STILESES!
FOR SOME REASON, ALL I CAN THINK OF IS THAT SMITHS/NEO GANGBANG FIGHT FROM THE MATRIX. CAN YOU IMAGINE IF DEREK WAS A BROODY NEO AND STILES WAS A VERY, VERY CHEERFUL SMITH? VERY CHEERFUL AND VERY PERSISTENT. NOT DRESSED IN A SUIT AND DARK GLASSES, BUT DRESSED IN THE SKIN OF AN UNASSUMING HUMAN BOY, IN PLAID AND DENIM, WITH A TYPICAL TEENAGE DERPFACE.
PERFECT FOR A PROGRAM GOING UNDERCOVER AMONG HUMANS.
BUT PERHAPS THIS PROGRAM WANTS OUT…? PERHAPS HE DOESN’T HATE THE HUMANS, BUT THE TRAP OF THE MATRIX, ITSELF? AND IS SO CLEVER AND DEEP IN COVER THAT NOBODY - NEITHER THE PROGRAMS NOR THE HUMANS - KNOWS EXACTLY WHERE HIS LOYALTIES LIE?
WHAT IF DEREK ENLIVENS HIM TO THE WORLD OF SENSATION, NOT ONLY TO THAT OF TOUCH, BUT DEEPER, DOWN TO HIS VERY SOUL? WHAT IF HE AND DEREK HAVE CODESEX - WHAT IF DEREK FUCKS HIS CODE? REWRITING HIM FROM WITHIN, HIS FINGERS RUNNING THROUGH THE VERY FABRIC OF STILES’S BEING, A BEAUTIFUL, HARROWING, SUBLIME UNION BEYOND THAT OF THE MEREST FLESH?
(YES, I KNOW I’VE TALKED ABOUT NEO!STILES AND TRINITY!DEREK BEFORE - WHAT WITH DEREK’S BADASS MOVES AND LEATHER JACKET - BUT SMITH!STILES IS NOW IN MY BRAIN AND WON’T GET OUT. EGADS.)
