Scene two... The Wedding of Claudius and Gertrude (The music has gone back in time to 1970's prog rock classic Court Of The Crimson King by King Crimson, and we've counterpointed the tragedy of the prologue with bright colours, party poppers and cheering... Oh, and the red cloths throughout the show are subtly denoting when/why people are "marked" for death – note Polonius' cane, too.) |
