Annotation:
	Examines spaces for a Bangkok production and performance of Hamlet entitled When I Slept Over the Night of the Revolution (2007), and Sulaiman al-Bassam's versions of Hamlet (2002-2004), Richard III (2009), and Twelfth Night (2012) (later published as The Arab Shakespeare Trilogy, q.v.). Displays how Shakespeare is appropriated and adapted by different nations that actively engage with the "Englishness" while simultaneously pushing it to the background to reflect their own national or global concerns.
