If you’re intrigued by Shakespeare but don’t feel prepared for hours of iambic pentameter, Newman’s production of “Hamlet” might be for you.
Tonight, Newman’s theatre department will debut its 90-minute version of the play, directed by Mark Mannette, theatre director. It stars senior Corbin Molina as Hamlet, sophomore Daniel Graber as King Claudius, and junior Anna Corbett as Queen Gertrude.
“Hamlet,” one of Shakespeare’s most famous plays, follows the story of Prince Hamlet, who is fixated on getting revenge against his uncle for killing his father. The play includes the famous line “To be, or not to be, that is the question.”
Performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m tonight, Friday and Saturday in the Jabara Flexible Theater inside DeMattias Hall. Another round of shows is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. April 3-5.
Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for students. They’re free for Newman students.
