Join CASA for this absurdist romp through Shakespeare’s Hamlet!
Why do we feel the need to submit to norms and expectations at the cost of our own identities?
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead details the unremarkable lives of two nobodies trying to find their places in a world of chaos and motion. Written by Sir Tom Stoppard and first staged in 1966, the show asks enduring questions about the nature of life, death, art, performance, reality, identity, and most importantly, takes special care to provide not a single answer.
Performances will be on Friday, July 28th, July 29th, August 3rd-5th, all shows at 7:30pm. All performances will be at Essex Studios (2511 Essex Place, Studio 282B, Cincinnati, OH 45206.
