Description A multimedia piece, billed as an opera, whose central story concerns the superintendent of a 'shambles', one Guildenkrantz and his offsider Rosenshtern. There is no obvious connection between these jumbled names and their originals in Hamlet, just as there is no clear reason for the mixture of English, Chinese and German in which the piece is written.
