Today, I co-starred in a production of Hamlet. Halfway through play, the actor playing Hamlet forgot his lines, threw a raging temper tantrum, screaming about how much he hated the play and how he wanted to go home in front of hundreds of audience members. FML

You should have slapped that ******* drama queen in the face. Goddamned prima donna needs to be knocked down a few levels back to reality.

Nice. To OP, how is this ******* YOUR life. It is hysterical. I can't imagine this "production" being anything bigger than a backyard show if the lead can't remember the lines and would flip shit like that. I hope someone puts it on youtube.

Actually I think he would pull up his robe thing and charge at him at top speed and tackle him.

I was unaware that William Shakespeare wore a robe.

I dunno, he seemed like the kind of guy who would've laughed his head off about it then changed the play to match it. The moral is: let's be glad that never happened.

Im pretty sure Shakespeare cried when he saw Gnomeo and Juliet from up above

I doubt he would care, he only wrote parts of his plays and would be far too busy getting drunk to give a crap. He was actually an alcoholic and may have died in a drinking contest.

I don't think Shakespeare would cry; rather, wonder how he's still alive.

actually I think he'd be flattered that his work is still getting so much attention

Actually he'd probably cry more about the fact that women were allowed to act in his plays... Back in his time period, men would even play a female role on stage.

Wow. Maybe you could think of this along the lines of "at least I looked fantastic in comparison". Shit goes wrong onstage all the time, although usually not as explosively as that. It's all in how you handle it. (Not that there's anything you could have done to salvage this clusterf*ck.)

Did you improvise? Maybe do a little jig til you got off stage?

But the actor would get a YDI, for handling that horribly wrong. F the OPs L because she had to co-star a play that bombed. At least soldier #2 didn't have his name on the fliers. XD

good thing he wasn't about to kill someone in the play or he might have actually killed someone a dagger he might kill himself in front of everyone.

Wow.. Is he 5? What a great way to save himself from the humiliation of forgetting his lines!

I don't think that's a good way to save from humiliation, I think it would have been less humiliating for him to not chuck a tantrum...
