Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, by brilliant wordsmith Tom Stoppard, presents a worm’s-eye view of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Critics have described the play as “verbally dazzling … an exciting, witty intellectual treat… the fabulously inventive tale of Hamlet as told from the view of the bewildered Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, a Shakespearean Laurel and Hardy … 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.”
