La Buèges on stage

The legacy of Hamlet now goes through this accelerated version of the longest work by the great Will. The actor and director Luc Miglietta brilliantly avoids all psychocritical analyses to deliver, with a healthy derision, the essence of a monumental text of Elizabethan theatre.
Hidden behind a red curtain, with a sharp eye and a demonic laugh — could it be Shakespeare's ghost? — he watches three companions wearing simple wool hats, determined to interpret the famous tragedy. To laugh or not to laugh: that is not the question, as they simply do not leave us the choice. And that's a good thing!
