I love how Gertrude is dressed, it really fits the character.

Haha thanks! Color was a major theme in the design of our production. Our set was set up like a chessboard with black and white receding checks on the stage, and then a grey or beige background with columns. We purposely had Gertrude be the only character wearing red, just as Ophelia was the only character all in white (until she died). Hamlet and pretty much everyone else were in black, but Hamlet had this t-shirt with a crowned skull.

Aw, that's innovative. The one I had was all actor's black except the fabric used to signify Ophelia's drowning.
