King Dom is a gothic and grotesque miniature castle were everything is rotten.

The rooms are rotten, the sheets are rotten, the sperm staining the rotten sheets is rotten, and the dreams dreamed in the rotten beds are of course also rotten. In this state of rottenness we can easily imagine that this play is only about existential decay, but actually it's not... King Dom is also a tale about fatherly love...

Don’t ask me as to how Gertrude and Godfriel alone, were able to kill so many people. All I know is that long before the slaughter began, during months of scheming and intrigues, they made sure that everyone in the castle hated each other so much, that the only way out of this pent-up hypocrisy was a proper bloody slaughter.
