Hamlet’s Appeal

Kaye Playhouse at Hunter College, New York City

About the Show

After 400 years of being locked up for multiple murders, Hamlet’s appeal will finally be heard. Was Hamlet a madman not responsible for his actions? Was he a victim of abused prince syndrome? Did he come from a dysfunctional family? Was Hamlet a patriot whose actions were justified in defense of his family and his country? Two lawyers, five judges and one audience will decide Hamlet’s fate as the Kaye Playhouse is transformed into the Royal Danish Court of Appeals.
