by Tom Stoppard
by Special Arrangements with Samuel French, Inc.
Performed March 18-20, 2004
Following
his success with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, the author
continues his association with Hamlet by taking the most famous and
best loved lines from Shakespeare's play and condensing them into a
hilarious thirteen minute version. This miraculous feat is followed by
an encore a two minute version! The multitude of characters is played
by six actors with hectic doubling, and the action takes place at an
abridged Elsinore Castle.
