A humorous retelling of Shakespeare’s Hamlet with puppets, the text of Der Bestrafte Brudermord (Fratricide Revenged) dates to an anonymous 1710 German manuscript. In collaboration with Dr. Tiffany Stern, Professor of Early Modern Drama at Oxford University and the American Shakespeare Center, the Hidden Room theatre company will bring this unique adaptation to life.
This award-winning production, which lasts 75 minutes, is intended for audiences aged 13+ and will be making its Brazos Valley debut. Prior to the production, students from the Texas A&M Department of Performance Studies will perform a series of soliloquies and abbreviated scenes for audience members to enjoy.
The schedule for this event will be as follows:
Doors: 6:15pm
Students from Performance Studies: 6:30pm
Hidden Room Theatre: 7:15pm
This event is made possible through the generous support of the College of Liberal Arts.
