Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

By Tom Stoppard

Directed by James Bohnen

Take a peek around the corners of Hamlet with bit players Rosencrantz and Guildenstern as they explore the expansive palace of Elsinore and their own odd little friendship. Bard-lovers take note: this is not Hamlet II. Sure, our moody Prince makes an appearance now and again, bringing with him moments of glorious Shakespearean poetry. But here, he’s the extra. And why not? Rosencrantz and Guildenstern admirably shoulder the existential goods for all us players in a way that’s at once endearing, savage and very, very funny.
