Yesterday, Mephistopheles, The Kid, and I went and saw the Cornish School’s comedic production of Hamlet at Volunteer Park. For the outrageous price of Nothing (besides the picnic goodies we picked up on the way) we spent the afternoon lounging in the sunlit grass laughing our asses off at family betrayal and excessive violence.

It was fabulous. Hamlet is an angry teenager and the uncle is one of the hottest little despots ever. Oh and the Shakespeare tradition of cross-dressing is definitely alive and well. Since they are putting on 2 more shows next weekend (Saturday and Sunday at 3:30 pm) I thought I would recommend it to you all.
