a comment I just left to [personal profile] rachelmanija: I have seen perhaps too many productions of Hamlet, The Tempest, and A Midsummer Night's Dream, all of which seem to have been popular with theatre companies when I was going out more often.

I should see if I can dig out what I wrote about two productions that assumed you knew the material: A one-man, less-than-an-hour Hamlet and Shakespeare's R and J, with the frame story of four teenage boys at a boarding school putting on the play without the support (or, I think, knowledge) of the teachers or other school staff.

ETA: I found the one-actor Hamlet, and if I posted about Shakespeare's R and J, I didn't tag it with either "theater" or "theatre".

I have just gone back and added "theatre" to the posts I had tagged "theater," and vice versa, rather than pick a spelling and merge the tags, which would likely be the right thing to do.
