OKT's Hamlet is back with its touches of genius

Few in China had heard of Oskaras Korsunovas Theater, or OKT in short, when the Lithuanian troupe first presented Hamlet as part of the mammoth Theater Olympics festival in late 2014 in Beijing.

Few went to see it. But those who did were so awestruck that word of mouth turned it into a breakout hit.

Now, OKT's Hamlet is back, presenting five performances each in Beijing (concluded on Sunday), Shanghai (March 10-13) and Guangzhou (March 17-20).
