I don't know how to describe it, you just have to be there. I laughed so hard I cried.
I loved the show!! It was hysterically funny, the actors were fabulous, the theater is great. I'll definitely look for more "gems" like this at The Maverick.
Some of the humor was a little raunchy, but it was still entertaining.
Thought the three guys doing the performance were outstanding. Very funny! I know next to nothing about Shakespeare, but now I know a little. Maybe a little skewed though.
Venue small and intimate -- sound system was blaring and annoying at times.
It was way too over the top to remain funny for long; a lot of times it was just plain silly. However, there were some hysterical scenes, like when Hamlet meets Ophelia at a strip club.
Saw this in Lonbdon a few years back and this was just as good. Thanks
I saw this show four years ago when the Maverick was located in The Block at Orange. LOVED IT!
Despite an interesting set and good actors, this production needed a major shot of adrenalin. The performances were energetic, but not the breakneck speed that the script demands. I was very disappointed. However, those seated around me seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Hysterical!! If you really want an exiting evening, sit in the front row...
The play was very funny and the three actors were very talented. We had a very enjoyable evening.
SOOOO FUNNYYY!!! Great venue, great performance. If you don't like any Shakespeare you'll still love the show, it you do know Shakespeare (even a little) then this is a show you can't miss!
It was a hilarious good time! I would highly recommend this play. The major plays were covered in a very unique way.
The production was really funny. Having said that, by boyfriend was not as big a fan of Shakespeare as I and he did not enjoy it as much.
This is a must-see. It is absolutely funny and entertaining! Don't miss it!
