"Interesting." "Well..." it definitely isn't Hamlet "performed by a group of chickens roaming in a field in Uzbekistan" but Hamlet on Ice could very well be the way forward in this topsy-turvy "incomprehensible shitty Shakespeare crap" world we're living in. Love the characters who say so very little and thereby say so much. Great fun!

Great fun. The broken fourth wall throughout adds to the freaky French hamlet feel. Favorite line: "...even though the constable’s third daughter was available with an heir ready to pop."

A few calm, steady brush strokes and the characters are complete. Well done!

An entertaining glimpse into Shakespeare tourism in Stratford-upon-Avon 150 years after the death of the Bard. Historical fact blended with historical fiction leads to super results. Bravo!

"Attention must be paid"...to this oh so irreverently funny short play. Even the stage direction made me laugh out loud: "Tomatoes, cucumbers, and other vegetables are tossed up as well" LOL

A fun little Christmas short perfect for a holiday festival. Some good lighting possibilities and the actors will have a ball with the props and staging. Nice!

Lovely use of pathetic fallacy in this short play. "...cold to the point that the air feels like it’s turning to ice inside of you and leaves you carved out and empty" But Karuc leaves you feeling anything but by the end. I love the Morana myth in a modern context and the sense of hope and renewal in the landscape.

Hubris. Tension. A dystopian future that feels very much like the present. You feel like a fly on the wall for this one: watching helplessly as everything unfolds, unable to stop what becomes the inevitable from happening.

Though set in the early 19th century, the twisted logic and dark humor of Mister Crump and Mister Burns reminded me somewhat of Hamlet's gravediggers but they're iconic fellows all on their own. A good read.

I found this monologue particularly appealing especially in the wake of a certain well known 82 year old actor playing Hamlet this past summer. The funny references to a play we know so well only faintly cover the pain of putting oneself out there time after time. Effortlessly poignant. Indeed, "the expectation and longing is very tiring."
