Hamlet: La Telenovela

FRIGID New York

Are Shakespeare and Telenovelas a match made in heaven? THAT is the question!

Under St Marks Theater

Hamlet couldn't possibly get more dramatic... or could it?Hamlet couldn't possibly be funny... or could it?Are Shakespeare and Telenovelas a match made in heaven? THAT is the question!With Hamlet: La Telenovela, audiences will experience Hamlet like never before—through an adaptation that heightens the story’s innate melodrama and explores it through a farcical, comedic lens.
