Like What “Hamlet” Suggests About Trump’s Impeachment TrialFebruary 9, 2021 at 6:01 PM Rereading “Hamlet” after the storming of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, I was struck by how fears of insurrection permeate the play. Every age sees itself in Shakespeare’s tragedy, but little did I expect to be reminded of the recent uprising and its poisonous politics when returning to this most philosophical of revenge dramas. – Los Angeles TimesTags: Art, Theatre, Los Angeles, Shakespeare, 02.07.21 54 people like this.

The street would later develop a certain cachet and even got its own name: Restaurant Row.
