Ophelia has a lot going on: her boyfriend, Hamlet, is being weird with her, and that was before he murdered her father and covered it up. A cheeky, irreverent and insightful feminist reimagining of Shakespeare’s monumental masterpiece by New Zealander playwright Jean Betts.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark – it’s all these f#cking men.
