for those of you who don't inderstand, the stall is to add comic relief and allow the people backstage (costume changers/props) the opportunity to prepare for act 2.
Damn! I never knew Reed could do all of those things! That throat thing is crazy cool! And seeing this whole 'stall for time' scetch makes me want to see them live even more!
I watched the Hamlet part of RSC during class. It was hilarious. I remember that during the fire eating scene I clapped when the audience clapped b/c I was so shocked by it, but stopped after the first few claps remembering that I was at class and not there. A few of my friends caught me clapping. It was funny. X]
it's part of the act...they do the same thing everytime, saw them live and Adam lay down on across my 4 female teachers laps, clung to them then emptied out our passports from one of the purses...we were in London, visiting from Singapore
three people have NO SENSE OF HUMOR AT ALL. these are great! i saw them at the new vic theater in nyc, and they were spectacular. THANKS FOR POSTING!!!!!!! :D
"What? Is it a crime to take someone's bag?" "YES!" "Oh everything I do is wrong! Why don't you take away my birthday!!" lol man these guys are hilarious!! XD
OH GOD!!!!!!!!! I remember doing this play back in High School. Long live Miss Anderson's class production of RSC!!!!!!!! We were probably the best cast in the world. Or at least at that school. Clarke Central High School.
Que genial, me encantaria estar en inglaterra para verlos, no se hablar ingles y entiendo muy poco pero soy actor de teatro y conosco las obras del Shakespeare. Espero en un futuro no muy lejano trabajar la comedia como lo hacen ustedes. Atte. Eduardo Delgado
It's probably for some logistical reason; maybe they have to do a prop change backstage. It's also possible that he's just a really talented guy (fire-eating, accordion, etc.) and they want him to get to show off.
@taz18mythbuster He was. It says in the appendices of the script that before joining the RSC he was a clown for Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey. Nice call.
they say that when adam is complaining and there are thinking about how they're going to do the play, it's very soft when the say it, but it's deffinitly there!
any one else here them say, "ya, and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern-no wait they have thier own play." ? cause i DID! thats my favorite play of all time! Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead! from Hamlet, woot!
@PearPeople7 There's enough kids in the audience the odds are pretty good. Plus, I'm sure they have plenty of backups ready throughout the show whenever they want audience participation.
RE: the throat thing - you need to hit the right part of your throat. It took me a while to work out. Try about half-way between your chin and neck, and about a centimetre in from your jawline. I'll warn you in advance - it *really* hurts!

"We're a lot more talented when you've had a few drinks."
"I don't care if your twenty I don't want to hear you using that language young man." I accidently spit up my drink at that part!
i love how the camera man isn't the slightest bit concerned
Adam's like a teenager and the other two act like parents, lol
dude, the fire actually touched his tongue, man!! (u can see some flame leap from it)
man, he sure is the guy u want at all your parties!!
he is so talented!! so many differnt things!!!

blowing out the marshmallow was a great way to close the first act. as a theatre person, I loved that.

How does he do that thing with his neck? This is pure gold!
4:29 Now THAT is talent, ladies and gentlemen! :)

it's an entertaining intermission
Love Adam's scream at 3:48!
That guy makes me want to learn the accordion XD
they say that when adam is complaining and there are thinking about how they're going to do the play, it's very soft when the say it, but it's deffinitly there!
LOL This video makes me laugh every-time I watch it!!!
Gotta love Adam,
"Now I know why some animals eat their young!" LMAO!!!
any one else here them say, "ya, and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern-no wait they have thier own play." ? cause i DID! thats my favorite play of all time! Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead! from Hamlet, woot!
Adam: I'll kill the camera man I swear.
Austin: I don't care. We have five other camera man.
lol can't stop laughing ( passes out on floor)
I saw Austin and 2 other guys do the Bible one, I wish it was Adam and 2 other guys! Adam FTW!
"We're always much more talented after you've had a few drinks." lol
i've always wondered what was written on the flashcard with the sonnets. it must be funny, lol.
The bald guy actually went to clown school
NameTaken1191 Ringling Brothers/ Barnum and Bailey Clown School, to be exact!
Camra man is like i dont give one
OMG I got to help with this play twice at my school :D I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!! It's so funny :D
I have alot of friends who are fire eaters so this scene makes me laugh so much! ACtually, fire eating was quite common in Shakespeare's day.
@PearPeople7 There's enough kids in the audience the odds are pretty good. Plus, I'm sure they have plenty of backups ready throughout the show whenever they want audience participation.
I never noticed that Martin had a bag too
I love that part!
"Ill kill the cameraman i swear Ill kill him!"
"I dont care i dont care we got 5 others i dont care"
that's Adam Long. but agreed he's awesome =)
@Highlander1G At a production I went to, his part did magic tricks and told jokes!
I highly doubt that Adam really ran out to the airport... probably just stayed in the lobby and then the backstage...
hahaha silly Adam... always trying to go to Rio ^_^
-austin and adam run through the door-
Adam: AAaaahh!! XD
Um Desmond and his Jerry Guy
lololol- i love this stuff was there ever a reason -like an actual reason- that he didn't want to preform Hamlet, though?
I don't care if you're 20, I don't want you using that language.
Love 'em!
Mmmm- makes me want marshmallows now
RE: the throat thing - you need to hit the right part of your throat. It took me a while to work out. Try about half-way between your chin and neck, and about a centimetre in from your jawline. I'll warn you in advance - it *really* hurts!
start at 3:22 and listen close.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! *wink* luvv it!!!
Can you put up all of Hamlet? Thank you!!
"It's got ideas & stuff..."
lol
I'm Doing A Production Of This For A-Level Drama, And I Play Adam, I'm Sooo Glad, He's Like The Funniest Character
@dcparty1901 i love that too lol
I loved this part XD soooooooooooo funny
I know that, I saw it in school. I just think it's still funny.
"why don't you just take away my birthday?" rotflmao!!!!!!
Could put up the comedies?
@MJlover3307 There's nothing written on the card. I've been to a production of this before and it's just blank.
yeah if it had been adam be the only one on stage entertaining ppl and not gone away, it wudve been better .haha
As always, Coriolanus is skipped over, without major discussion.
@Kholdstarezero I'm not a fan of his, either, but Emmerich is the one having Sony distribute pamphlets to schools promoting his movie as fact.
I wonder what was actually written on that card...
Desmond?
I want to marry Adam, but apparently that positions been filled! *sigh*
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S ON THE CARD!!!
Does anyone know what the card actually says? Was anyone watching this there?
Dameon sorry.
"Shakespeare didn't write Hamlet, did he?" Is Adam secretly Roland Emmerich?
Do you mean Dominic?
2:49
How the heck does Reed do that?
@PearPeople7 Probably not. They are really good at improv
Who were the two other guys?
see?!
Is it a crime to take someone's bag?
Lol!!
Any evidence for that?
Well yes, Reed is bald. :)
No it's not it's a mel gibson film.
LOL
Yeah sorry. Im not bright. Im blone.
Shakespeare didn't write hamlet :P
Regan Hicks Hamlet wrote Shakespeare.
Its just supposed to be funny - they're playing characters playing characters =]
It's a Mel Gibson movie
