Theater Thursdays: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

August 1st, 2013 by WLOY Staff

August 8th-18th

Weinberg Park Heights JCC – 5700 Park Heights Ave

The Jewish Theater Workshop is proud to present Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead by Tom Stoppard from August 8th to August 18th. Acclaimed as a modern masterpiece, this play is the tale of Hamlet creatively told from the view of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, two minor characters from Shakespeare’s original play. In this modern twist on a Shakespeare classic, the two titular characters finally get to take the lead role in a convoluted world where reality and illusion intermix, and eventually meet a tragic but inevitable demise. The production will be shown Thursday August 8th at 7pm, Sunday August 11th at 1pm, Tuesday August 13th at 7pm, Thursday August 15th at 7pm, and Sunday August 18th at 1pm; so there are quite a few dates for all to choose from. General admission tickets are $15 and $10 for Students and Seniors.
