HAMLET Runs Nov. 7-9

HAMLET
SSCC Theatre
Nov. 7-9
Southern State Community College Central Campus Daniels Auditorium [Hillsboro]

Adapted and directed by Rainee Angles

Cast: Jacob Bice, Bob Brown, Paula Campagna, Camden Griffith, Fiona Holmes, Ian Holmes, Leslie Holmes, Gavin Isaacs, Bronwyn Jones, Johanna Kelley, Max Petzold, Quinn Pickering-Polstra, Logan Savage, A.J. Schroder, Payton Taylor, Shawn Thomsen, and Matt Waits.

“Hamlet” is a timeless tragedy of revenge, madness, and betrayal. After the sudden death of his father, Prince Hamlet is visited by the ghost of the late king, who reveals a chilling truth: he was murdered by his own brother, Claudius, who has now seized both the throne and Hamlet’s mother, Queen Gertrude. Torn between duty and despair, Hamlet struggles with grief, feigned insanity, and the burden of vengeance. His erratic behavior devastates Ophelia, the woman he loves, while his mistrust of Gertrude deepens the play’s portrait of fractured family ties. As deception spreads through the Danish court, friendships crumble, innocence is destroyed, and elaborate plots drive the story toward a final, fatal duel. With its ghostly visitations, razor-sharp wit, and haunting conclusion, “Hamlet” endures as Shakespeare’s most profound and devastating masterpiece.

Auditions Announced for RADIUM GIRLS at SSCC Theatre

SSCC Theatre will hold auditions for the fall production of “Radium Girls,” by D.W. Gregory, open to community members and students, at 6:00 p.m. Friday, August 30, and at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, August 31, in the Edward K. Daniels Auditorium on Southern State Community College‘s Central Campus, 100 Hobart Drive, Hillsboro.

In 1926, when radium was a miracle cure, Madame Curie an international celebrity, and luminous watches the latest rage—until the girls who painted them began to fall ill with a mysterious disease. Inspired by a true story, “Radium Girls” traces the efforts of Grace Fryer, a dial painter, as she fights for her day in court. Her chief adversary is her former employer, Arthur Roeder, an idealistic man who cannot bring himself to believe that the same element that shrinks tumors could have anything to do with the terrifying rash of illnesses among his employees. As the case goes on, however, Grace finds herself battling not just with the U.S. Radium Corporation, but with her own family and friends, who fear that her campaign for justice will backfire.
