Hamlet
Directed by Susanna Wilson
July 12 – August 16, 2008
“There’s a divinity that shapes our ends.”
In Denmark, the old Norse gods are being relegated to the realm of mythology as Christianity becomes a way of life. When Hamlet’s father, the King, dies, and his mother remarries the King’s brother, thoughts of revenge, lust, ambition, and murder intertwine with questions of death itself. New concepts of Divine Providence and life after death are something only Prince Hamlet dares to explore. Shakespeare’s masterful play presents an engaging story examining humanity’s innermost thoughts and beliefs.

Hamlet
This show is spectacular. I will definitely be seeing it again, and bringing more friends to show off the gem of a show I've found. The cast of about 10(!) was amazing, and what a feat to perform this intense show outside...I can't believe it! There were twists and turns I wasn't even aware of before, it really kept my interest...And Hamlet is a total babe, who carried the show. He was SO good.
