   Why did Maxine Peake say 'to be or not to be'?

   • Interestingly, Maxine Peake’s delivery of the “To be or not to be” speech (while covered in blood) brought home a great truth for me: it is not simply an abstract discourse, but an agonised self-harming rant, triggered specifically by his grotesque accidental homicide of Ophelia’s foolish parent.

   What does Peake look like in Hamlet?

   • In appearance, Peake has cropped hair, a shapeless blue suit and a look of wary suspicion. She doesn't go out of her way to underline Hamlet's maleness: character, you feel, matters more than gender. It is, however, noticeable that Peake reacts with anger when told her mourning is "unmanly grief".

   Is Peake a gimmick?

   • Her casting isn’t a gimmick. Peake looks like a stowaway, or a French resistance fighter in disguise: her femaleness gives a new edge of differentness and alienation and anger, although turning Polonius into “Polonia” was a bit self-conscious and didn’t illuminate the text much.
