Lisbon Players gets into the spirit of March Madness with Tom Stoppard’s deliriously inventive riff on Hamlet! The play has been described as an absurdist, existential tragicomedy, along the lines of Beckett’s Waiting For Godot.
The play revolves around two minor characters from Shakespeare’s ‘Hamlet’, with the action focusing on them, inversely paralleling the events of Hamlet that are proceeding as the backdrop. A highly entertaining yet thought provoking play; it is widely regarded as one of Stoppard’s best.
