Proudly Presents
HAMLET
by William Shakespeare
Directed & Adapted by Thomas R. Gordon
July 2 - July 25
An Inspection of the myth and legend of Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”
Visited by his father's ghost, Prince Hamlet of Denmark learns his brutal murder was at the hands of his uncle Claudius – and spirals into a quest for vengeance that exposes the rot at the heart of the family's empire and threatens his own sanity. Come join the Onomatopoeia Theatre Company for an exploration of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy, while also inspecting the text relationship to the story of Prince Amleth, the Scandinavian legend which Shakespeare based his classic play upon.
The Onomatopoeia Theatre Company is proud to be returning to the works of Shakespeare by bringing his timeless classic, "Hamlet," to the Gene Frankel Theatre. The central goal of this production is to honor Shakespeare’s text while also inspecting the legend of Amleth, the legendary Scandinavian figure (circa 1200 AD) who directly inspired Shakespeare's "Hamlet."
