SUMMARY:HAMLET
DESCRIPTION:HAMLET\nBy William Shakespeare\, adapted by James Rice and Amanda Karr\nPlaying the Long Beach Playhouse’s Mainstage Theater\nApril 6 – May 4\, 2024\nDirected by James Rice\nPeer into the mind of Shakespeare’s most dynamic character\, HAMLET\, in a unique adaptation of the bard’s most compelling masterpiece. As Hamlet experiences the death of his father\, he is visited by his father’s ghost seeking justice for his murder. Hamlet is shaken by this experience as his potential madness is made tangible when other actors start to take on the aspects of his splintering mind.  The story proceeds as Shakespeare told it\, but with a core Hamlet and four others playing his innocence\, wisdom\, justice\, and vengeance. Come see the story you know and appreciate\, but with an exciting twist that illuminates the play anew for those familiar and unfamiliar with this seminal tale. \nBUY TICKETS HERE :\nCHOOSE A DATE:\nTHIS PRODUCTION CLOSED MAY 4\, 2024 \nUnable to make it in person?

One of his greatest dark farces\, the play centers around two amateur thieves\, Dennis and Hal. Dennis works as a hearse driver for an undertaker and the pair have robbed the bank next door to the funeral parlor. They decide to hide their ‘loot’ in the coffin of Hal’s recently deceased mother\, stashing her body in a wardrobe in the meantime. However\, before they can remove the coffin\, the dead body is discovered by Fay McMahon\, a predatory nurse who makes a habit out of marrying men who subsequently die in strange circumstances. She has now quickly engaged herself to marry Hal’s father but when she discovers the stash of cash\, she demands a third of the spoils. Dennis and Hal’s tricky situation is worsened further by the arrival of Inspector Truscott\, who strangely disguises himself as a man from the local Water Board. Using the conventions of standard farce\, the trio attempt to keep the body and the money away from the Inspector in an increasingly tangled web of deceit and corruption. \nCASTING THE FOLLOWING ROLES:\nNOTE: Actively seeking all ethnicities for all roles \nMcLEAVY (Male\, Mid 40s to 60s) a sanctimonious and gullible widower and father.  (British accent required.) \nHAL (Male\, Mid 20s) A larcenous and promiscuous (with both sexes) nihilist.  One of the bank robbers and son of McLeavy.  (British accent required.) \nDENNIS (Male\, Mid 20s) Hal’s childhood friend\, lover\, and partner in bank robbery.  He is a hearse driver and has impregnated five different women.  (British accent required.) \nFAY (Female\, Late 20s – 30s) An attractive but murderous and avaricious nurse to the deceased woman in the casket\, on the prowl for her eighth husband and a cut of the loot.  (British accent required.) \nTRUSCOTT (Male\, 30s or 40s) A sneaky\, violent\, blow-hard police detective\, investigating the bank robbery.  He is part psychopath\, part clown.  (British accent required.) \nMEADOWS (Male\, 20s\, 30s or 40s) A police bobby who carries out the Inspector’s orders for arrest.  (British accent required.) \nBEGINNING REHEARSAL SCHEDULE:\n\n\nLoot-Beg.-Reh.-Schedule-v.2Download
