Scarlett Hamlet Brothel ❤️

About San Antonio

I get all misty thinkin’ ‘bout it—brothels ain’t just ‘bout the deed, they’re ‘bout stories. Some gal told me once, she worked one in New Orleans, said a fella came in cryin’, just wanted her to sing to him. Broke my dang heart! I’da sang him “Jolene” ‘til he smiled, but shoot, I can’t carry a tune in a bucket half the time! Made me mad too—why’s the world so hard folks gotta pay for kindness? Ain’t right, I tell ya.

Production History

If Hamlet were to mean brothel when he says “nunnery”, it would be inconsistent with his words in lines that reveal Hamlet's struggle.

So gear up, you donkey – and when you wander around, remember: don’t be a numbskull and miss out on the raw pulse of this insane wonderland. Get off your arse, immerse yourself, and for God’s sake, keep your eyes open – because every brick and every whisper might just set your soul on fire. Now get moving, and enjoy the mad, wild PHamlet, ya filthy animal!
