Title: “John Lithgow's Shakespearean Slip-Up“ Date: June 7, 2014 Place: London, England John Lithgow, the versatile actor known for his commanding stage presence, found himself in a moment of theatrical hilarity during a performance in London's renowned West End. It was a prestigious production of Shakespeare's “Hamlet,“ where Lithgow had taken on the challenging role of Claudius. In the midst of an intense and pivotal soliloquy, while delivering Shakespeare's eloquent lines with fervor, Lithgow suddenly stumbled on a word. Instead of saying “ambition,“ he unintentionally blurted out “hambition.“ At that precise moment, the entire audience held its breath, unsure if it was a slip of the tongue or an intentional twist on Shakespeare's words. Without breaking character, Lithgow continued the soliloquy, smoothly incorporating “hambition“ into his speech, much to the surprise and amusement of the audience.
