War is brewing. Denmark, resting on its past military might, has fallen behind in the arms race and unknowingly stands at a precipice, embroiled in an internal battle for the integrity of the Danish state. Catherine Friesen’s Hamlet struggles against the usurping Claudius (Mark Corkins), sexual prejudice, and martial law to revenge the murder of his father. Set against the backdrop of Villa Terrace Decorative Art Museum, this production promises a new hearing of Shakespeare’s classic tragedy and a new view on the role of the Danish Prince.
