HAMLET
TRANSCENDENT ENSEMBLE THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS THEIR ADAPTATION OF HAMLET
ABOUT THE PLAY: TETC continues the transmutation of classic cannons in this immersive new interpretation of Shakespeare's HAMLET. Set in 1968 after the Summer of Love, this ensemble of seven actors bring the text to life in a whole new way exploring the anarchy and chaos of the American 60s. It's a rebellion against the system! Claudius, the new king, promises peace. Hamlet, hates the "establishment" and wants to avenge his father's death. Revenge, sex, murder, greed! Something is rotten! Come hang with the hippies and watch it all unfold!

Show runs 2 hours (you read that right, HAMLET, in 2 hours!)
