HOTEL ELSINORE

Loading Events

Starts at $20

Denmark. 2am. A hotel room. Three weary travelers, an unexpected will and a production of Hamlet to rehearse before morning. Tragedy and humor blend in this new play about the challenges of family, forgiveness, and Shakespeare.

Real-life family–Susanna Hamnett, Joshua MacGregor, and Lily MacGregor–play the bereaved family of the once-great actor, Henry Elder, who was billed to perform his career-defining solo Hamlet at the famous Elsinore Shakespeare Festival. But, as they discover, Henry Elder is determined not to let anything as inconvenient as death prevent him from being there. With Shakespeare’s Hamlet as the pivot around which the family’s story revolves, the play is by turns absurd and poignant.

*Donors of $500 or more to the 2024 Strings Annual Fund are granted early ticket access.
