My overall impression
WHY isn’t this page exploding with reviews? Hamlet-Mobile is about as Fringe as you can get. Stop reading this review and go get in the van.
GET IN THE VAN.
Hamlet in eight parts (I’ve only seen three so this is what I know so far). Some is on the street, some is in the van. I won’t get into the content because at this point I don’t know what would constitute a spoiler.
A slice of ham left in the glove compartment. That would constitute a spoiler.
Anyway, the idea of Hamlet-Mobile should be enough to get you out there. The van drives around the Fringe, parks, does shows, and then drives away. The in-van parts usually accommodate only one person at a time. If you’re lucky enough to catch the “To Be or Not To Be” speech, you will be amazed. No joke. It’s like you’ve never seen it before.
GET IN. GET IN THE VAN.
Hamlet-Mobile is great. So creative and fun. And the crew is just delightful. It’s like a mobile art puzzle treasure hunt and no two people will have the same experience because you’ll see the eight pieces in whatever order they come. In fact, I suspect there is no order. It’s probably like The Prisoner where you could watch in various orders and get various meanings out of it. So
GET IN THE VAN!
