Director Emma Rosa Went takes us to finish line with our Act V discussion of Hamlet!
Among many things, we discuss how the play moves from a philosophical interrogation of death to a visceral confrontation in the gravediggers scene, how class distinctions and politics crop up in Act V, the significance of the skull Hamlet encounters being a court jester, and … funyuns.
Our company for Hamlet includes: Olivia Rose Barresi, William Cary, Harrison Densmore, Zoë Goslin, Patrick Harvey, Colin Holmes, Ariana Karp, Finn Kilgore, Julia Larsen, Andrea Lopez Alvarez, Joe McGurl, Erin Noll, Tim Palmer, Isabel Smith-Bernstein, and Else C. Went.
