​

This absurdist spin on the classic characters of Shakespeare's Hamlet was designed with a mix of time periods and styles to emphasize the absurdity of time. With the tragedians inspired by 1920's film noir and circus aesthetics against the Rennaissance-era protagonists, the traditional Shakespearean costume expectations are subverted.
