Two quirky characters
from Shakespeare's Hamlet are caught somewhere between
Denmark, Heaven and Hell in this brilliantly witty dark comedy
by one of Britain's most celebrated playwrights. A kind of
Elizabethan Twilight Zone, filled with genius wordplay and
metaphysical mindgames, it thrills and delights with its provocative
blend of Shakespearean and Existential inquiry about the nature
of being. Don't miss this exhilarating riff on "the Danish
play!"
Directed by Paul
Mullins, whose recent Shakespeare Theatre credits
include acclaimed productions of Richard II, King
John and The Illusion.
