Hamlet the musical - to be or not to be.
If you don't like Hamlet, musicals, or a combination of the two, you probably won't like this.
Anyone else, I think this is rather well done - this is the "theme song", and superbly hammy. Currently on at some place in Northampton and coming to London towards the end of this month. Written by a bloke I vaguely knew at uni, and just noticed him pimping it on Facebook. More details at www.hamletthemusical.com
*PS, if you regard this as spammy, I regard YOU as spammy.

I know the guy that wrote it!
Alex Silverman - he's the conductor in the video.
Edit: reading your post again, it appears you know him too. Small world!

Only vaguely...
... and also the producer, and for that matter the lass on fiddle.
Went to see it when he first put it on in Cambridge, and this tune was still in my head over 10 years later. It's excellently cheesy.

I've not seen it yet
but I remember getting excited when I saw someone wearing the t-shirt a few years ago (bearing the legend "Something is Rocking in the State of Denmark")
