The biggest issue is that they were taking it so damn seriously. My kid, who would be a dramaturg if the fates were kind, observed that it might have gone over better if they decked everyone in glam rock attire and let their tongues slip into their cheeks just a bit. Not to go all camp, just acknowledge that a rock HAMLET, especially played at ear-drum shattering levels, is a wee bit absurd.
But they were so full of self-importance... Just wow.
