An unenthusiastic review of Mr Anderson's portrayal of Hamlet. The reviewer states that, while the actor's interpretation of Hamlet is that he was mad, he gives this idea too great a prominence at the expense of Hamlet's more subtle character traits. For example, the reviewer suggests that in the speeches where Hamlet laments the death of his father 'a tone of dignified sorrow would be sufficient, without those convulsive gulpings' more suited to a 'lower style of acting'.
