A co-production with the Bloomsburg University Players
Made possible in part by a Shakespeare in American Communities Grant from the NEA
Directed by Gerard Stropnicky
A timeless tale of assassination, revenge, and so much more. In this most famous play in the English language, the Prince of Denmark struggles with conscience honor and the very core of what it means to be human. What will BTE bring to Shakespeare’s magnificent text? Clarity, warmth, honesty, humor, genuine excitement and an illumination unique to Ensemble.
