Little Theater Production of Hamlet

by Jean Battlo

Drama/Comedy

May 12 - June 3, 2006

A sophisticated New York director with a successful Off-Broadway season under her belt travels to West Virginia to direct Hamlet under the auspices of a grant for 'under-served regions'. Gathering in Hattie's restaurant, this group perpetrates a harrowing production of Shakespeare. Amazing costumes and merru mishaps ladle hilarity on top of sincere attempts to tailor Hamlet to this remarkable cast. The play is the thing, and the result is a fractured, quixotic production that provides a fine example of realizing the impossible dream.
