Considered to be William Shakespeare’s greatest masterwork and one of the most influential, quotable and enduring works in all of literature, Hamlet has left audiences and critics alike spellbound for over four centuries, captivating stages, classrooms, movie screens and imaginations all over the world with its gripping and timeless story of murder, betrayal, justice, madness, mortality, corruption and familial loyalty.The young Prince Hamlet, mourning the recent death of his father, is shocked and angered to see his mother Gertrude hastily remarry his uncle Claudius, who has now taken Denmark’s throne as sovereign. But events take a more sinister turn when his father’s ghost pays Hamlet a visit and announces that he was murdered—and reveals that Claudius is the culprit! Driven by a mix of grief, rage and a thirst for justice, Hamlet sets out on a harrowing path to avenge his father and restore order in the Danish court. But revenge isn’t as simple as it seems. As Hamlet struggles to uncover the truth and confront his own moral conscience and indecisiveness, the world around him begins to unravel (including, possibly, his own sanity), the webs of deceit and malice tighten their grip, and a bloody and tragic finale lurks in the shadows, promising few survivors after the final sword is drawn. And to perform it all? Three men (Craig Franklin, Tomas Peter, and Brad “Hamlet” Filippone) and three women (Sonia, Jenn Broda, and Kelly S. Taylor), determined to give you a performance of Shakespeare's work that you will never forget. You thought you knew your Shakespeare? Well, think again! - Summary by Tomas Peter CAST LIST: Brad “Hamlet” Filippone: Narrator; Claudius; Ghost; Second Clown; Prologue to The Mousetrap. Tomas Peter: Hamlet; Cornelius; First Dane.
