In spite of the next few sentences, this a rave review.
I have reservations about Humble Boy, a huge hit at the National and in the West End for Charlotte Jones. I admire the writer's ambition and sheer cheek in using the emotional framework of the Hamlet story, overlaying it with modern metaphysical musings derived from the abstruse ponderings of people like Stephen Hawking, and seeding it with jokes that would make a Carry On script look over-intellectual.
But it strikes me as contrived and clunky in too many places. Forcing metaphors based on bee-keeping, astrophysics and the yearning for love in dysfunctional families to cross breed leads to some right ungainly offspring fighting for life.
