SUMMARY
A crumbling superpower is seized by Claudius, a new leader with a familiar face. His stepson Hamlet uncovers a secret that pits 21st century youth against their politically depraved elders. In this Hamlet, betrayal runs rampant, trust means nothing, and, although a camera’s eye catches the state’s every action, no one is truly safe.

The cast features Blake Bagby (Rosencrantz), Ellen Chambers (Gravedigger/Ensemble), Christopher Chmelik (Horatio), Andrew Gallant (Claudius), Matt Hune (Hamlet), Jeremy Kahn (Bernardo/Renaldo/Lord), Megan Kohl (Gertrude) , Grace Lowman (Guildenstern), Mallory Nees (Marcellus/Player Queen/Ensemble), Christina Nieves (Laertes), Matteo Smith, (Polonius) , and Mary Williamson (Ophelia)
