Synopsis

In the final moments of Hamlet, the dying prince pleads with his one, true friend, Horatio, to tell his story to those who would otherwise not understand his life and death. And Flights of Angels is Horatio's response; it is Horatio's Hamlet. What secret did Horatio know? What would he never repeat? What would he emphasize? And how should the story be told? since "the play's the thing," Horatio gathers a troupe of actors to "play the play." This allows the director great creativity in casting and technical values. If you have always wanted to do Hamlet but felt it was just too difficult, this is your chance.

Customer Reviews

"A wonderful adaptation of one of literature's greatest works. The adaptation brings a wonderful accessibility to this show. The characters are rich and well developed. It is very encouraging to be able to tackle Hamlet with the express permission to allow girls to play any of the roles! Also, this setting wonderfully allows for a multiracial cast."
