About This Show

New World Theatre begins its second season with HAMLET: EVOLUTION featuring Hamlet: First Quarto 1603 by William Shakespeare and the newly-commissioned modern adaptation Priscilla by New York Playwright Jeff Love.

HAMLET: EVOLUTION was developed with the aim to highlight the evolution of Shakespeare’s renowned play from its origins to its relevant implications today.

Priscilla takes Shakespeare’s most famous work and puts its premise of indecision leading to destruction into a more contemporary context – and with a woman as the protagonist. Will Priscilla choose a life of love and security or will she lose herself amid the unraveling revelations surrounding her mother’s suspicious death?
