Synopsis

At the dress rehearsal for Hamlet, young Tom is utterly exhausted from playing the title character.

He closes his eyes for just a minute and opens the audiences’ to a version of the Bard’s masterpiece never before imagined.

Uncle/Father Claudius can’t seem to remember anyone’s name and Hamlet’s dead-butbiological father exhibits multiple personalities reminiscent of other famous literary phantoms.

From the mysterious council of rabbits (or “rabbi”) to Hamlet covering up Polonius’ death with ventriloquism, this comedy is sure to be a hit with the whole family!
