‘Hamletmachine’, written by Müller in 1977 East Germany, is a postmodernist drama which borrows from Shakespeare, T.S. Eliot, and Jean-Luc Godard and deals not only with the ideas of communism and feminism, but also with the idea of being trapped in any time or situation. ‘Hamletmachine’ was an immersive, gritty, in-yer-face performance experience where audience members were asked to walk through multiple non-traditional performance spaces as if in an art gallery.
