The seventies sitcom you never knew Shakespeare wrote. Mistaken identity, confused neighbors, angry wives, bewildered husbands, two sets of twins, and a whole lotta wacky, groovy fun, all filmed in front of a live studio audience.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark. The time is out of joint. Hamlet – prince, courtier, soldier, scholar, th’ observed of all observers – is told by the ghost of his father to revenge his foul and unnatural murder. So much darkness and mystery hides in Elsinore. O cursed spite, that ever he was born to set it right! Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy brought to the Drollinger Family Stage in our ninth season!Questions?
