Reception:

“voyeuristic, engaging, unnerving . . .

…We float from room to room — and sometimes run,  as I did,  up and down the stairs — to follow the screams as one character is killed and then another . . .

I hadn’t ever paid attention to that old Victorian home as I zoomed past . . . Now it haunts me.  I find myself staring at the windows and the porches, searching for Hamlet and the other ghosts. "

- The WORLD HERALD

"Remarkable…”

“…expertly staged in every nook and cranny, every shadow and every open space... the 14-member cast talks and walks with skills which glow in the dark"

"...Striking the perfect balance between complexity and accessibility. . .

Its haunting, non-linear presentation of Shakespeare’s  Hamlet  is inspired by Faulkner’s  The Sound and the Fury   in its play on multiple perspectives, disjoined by time and space while unified by the play’s major events... "

The Sound & The Fury

If Hamlet’s  tragedy took place within the span of one night, in the 1930’s South;

if Hamlet were possessed by the ghost of his father that night;

if the spirits of those dead were doomed to walk the night, until their own foul crimes were burnt and purged away--just as Hamlet’s father before them…
