“So…once more… tell me about this Ghost.”

That’s how the legendary story begins. But ghosts are tricky things. Especially in a world of madness, murder, and mayhem. A rich, entitled Prince goes on a ferocious rampage that will lead to a massacre in the living room. Is he a tragic hero as we’ve often been told? Or a royal-blooded serial killer? In this brisk and intense excavation of the classic text with new scenes and characters, we will step into a forensic investigation of the ultimate crimes of passion to see what really went down.

It’s been half a century since Hamlet was produced at the Taper, and Tony Award®-nominated visionary Robert O’Hara, director of the landmark box office hit Slave Play, returns to stage a world premiere modern adaptation of one of the most famous tales ever told. Featuring Patrick Ball (The Pitt) in the titular role, joined by Gina Torres (Suits) as Gertrude and Coral Peña (Our Dear Dead Drug Lord) as Ophelia. Experience Hamlet with an unexpected twist.
