At my high school, they did a play called "I Hate Hamlet", about a television actor who moves into Barrymore's old apartment, and he tries out for "Hamlet" on Broadway and gets the main role, but he regrets it, so Barrymore's Ghost comes back from the grave, and gives him advice to "How to portray 'Hamlet'". The actor portraing Barrymore was absolutly INCREDABLE, as was everyone else, but a 16-year-oldhe was better than what I expected. Anybody seen a performance similar to what I mentioned?

Yeah, I played Andrew Rally in my college's theatre class. It's a great play.
