Project Hamlet

As I mentioned in my list of 2012 plans - I am going to be launching something called Project Hamlet very soon, this month, in fact. Its not open quite yet, as it will have its own tumblr and various other things before its operational, but now seems a good enough time to announce what its all about. In short, Project Hamlet is my attempt at a worldwide experiment in drama, as everyone submits a line from the most famous dramatic soliloquy ever written: the “to be or not to be” speech in Hamlet. The idea of so many voices, each interpreting their line differently, from all around the globe, is really quite spectacular, both in terms of combining dramatic interpretations, but in terms of how far drama has advanced, from the early days of stage to an era where anyone, anywhere, can be united through those words. 

The most famous lines ever written, living in a new era of drama.

More information soon. Much more. I’m excited about this.
