    Oh, if only Shakespeare had written his plays in this style I would have studied them a lot more at school!
    This is a hilarious take on the famous painting, which I'll never be able to see in the same light again!
    Brilliant!

    I do so enjoy an alternate ending. Here, Adam Richter has given Ophelia a much needed second chance. Away from the madness of the court. There is much to learn from the son of a hapless guard. Great fun ands a little bit of hope.

    Oh, what a little water can solve. ADAM RICHTER has taken Hamlet and turned it on its head in FARVEL, OPHELIA. RICHTER has a gift for dialogue and the back and forth between two Danes is priceless. Audiences will love the humor.
