I think maybe the most important thing about Hamlet is that the line between sanity and madness has so much more to do with societal expectation than we want to admit

Like

The question of whether Hamlet and/or Ophelia are “truly” mad can’t even be asked unless you’re willing to grapple with whether their behavior—as erratic and ugly and confusing and incomprehensible as it might seem—is nevertheless a reasonable response to their situation, and that calling them “mad” is politically expedient for Claudius and Gertrude.

Grief and loneliness and fear can all make your brain and you behave in buckwild ways, it’s true, but it’s also about the crushing expectation that you won’t show any signs emotional disregulation, that you’ll continue to be a sober and rational and put-together noble when your world is falling to pieces around you. Whoever can pretend better gets to be called sane.

…god but you could do something fascinating with a production where Gertrude vehemently denies she can see the ghost while she is visibly and obviously staring directly at it

edit: now with color!

Omg Ophelia you would not believe the day I had.

First horatio was like “methinks I saw him yesternight, the king your father” and I’m all like “the king my father???? But he’s dead; peep the nighted color of my mourning garb.” Then he tells me this wild tale of seeing the ghost of my dad and that I should totally come check it out tonight. So I go and skip my uncle’s rager, but it was cold and Marcellus forgot snacks. BUT THEN OPHELIA—The ghost actually showed up, but it started stalking away. So I’m like “I’m gonna follow it” but Horatio grabs me and goes “nooo doooont! it will make you jump off a cliff or lure you in to madness!” So I pulled a knife on him, because one should always have a knife when communing with spectres loosed from hell, just common sense, and threatened to kill him and Marcellus if they wouldn’t let me go. Can you believe horatios nerve? He invites me ghost hunting and then gets all weird about me hunting ghosts!! Anyway, long story short: ran around the woods in the dead of night and lost my hat, talked to the ghost, pissed myself hence why I’m holding my trousers and—why are you looking at me like my noble mind has been overthrown?
