Join us for a staged reading of Hamlet, considered to be one of the greatest plays Shakespeare wrote.
Hamlet returns to Denmark from his university studies to mourn the death of his father, King Hamlet, who died two months earlier. His Uncle Claudius has now married Hamlet’s mother, Gertrude. Suddenly, the ghost of his father appears to Hamlet, telling him that Claudius poisoned him. Hamlet vows to avenge his father's murder. J.R. Sullivan directs a cast of Shakespeare Project favorites.
