ASF presents the greatest play ever written, starring ASF Artistic Director Guy Roberts as Hamlet. This is the timeless story of one man’s journey to overcome his own crippling self-doubt and to embrace humanity as he tries to understand the nature of manhood, despair, passion, honor, revenge and redemption. Murder, incest, espionage, and love take the stage as Denmark stands on the brink of war while the map of Europe is being re-drawn by military invasion and political intrigue. "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark."
