Hamlet by B Murray

This was written for a production of Hamlet by Chalice Media. It was directed by Charlotte Pedley and was performed over the final three days of September.
The writing process was unlike anything I've done before. I was asked by the director to not focus on creating themes or motifs for characters and scenes, but instead to just play. Mess with the instrument, mess with effects, if you like something, record it and put it into the play wherever you think it works in rehearsal.
Twenty-two pieces were recorded, seventeen were used alongside a couple of new Just demos, which are not part of this collection, and one old Just demo, which is here called Ophelia.
I loved being a part of this play, everyone was super supportive through all the tribulations and I am immensely proud of Chip for all she gave in it. I love you.
