NOT TO BE @ Black Box Theater

By Amanda Rosmann and Kate Sarner
Directed by Kate Sarner

To be or not to be– that is the question… that we’ve answered in this 60-minute, fast-paced, lovingly irreverent mashup of Shakepeare’s greatest deaths. Join the Gravediggers from Hamlet on their raucous journey through (almost) every death in the comeDIES, trageDIES, and histor…ies. Written by local playwrights Amanda Rossman and Kate Sarner, this play is an excellent introduction to the world and language of the great William Shakespeare.

Appropriate for ages 10 and up. Content may not be appropriate for younger audiences due to theatrical portrayals of physical violence and death, as portrayed in Shakespeare’s original works.
