Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

ROSENCRANTZ & GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD
By Tom Stoppard
Directed by Josh Short

EXTENDED BY POPULAR DEMAND THRU FEBRUARY 14!

Acclaimed as a modern dramatic masterpiece, Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead is the fabulously inventive tale of Hamlet as told from the worm's-eye view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters in Shakespeare's play. In Tom Stoppard's best-known work, this Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy finally get a chance to take the lead role, but do so in a world where echoes of Waiting for Godot resound, where reality and illusion intermix, and where fate leads our two heroes to a tragic but inevitable end.

"Very funny, very brilliant, very chilling; it has the dust of thought about it and the particles glitter excitingly in the theatrical air. " - The New York Times

"A stimulating, funny, imaginative comedy." - The New York Daily News
