Women Playing Hamlet

Hamlet's a challenge for any actor, but when Jessica is cast as the

titular character in a New York production, it sends her into an

existential tailspin. It doesn't help that her acting coach is

borderline abusive, or that every Starbucks barista with an MFA

tells her she's too young for the role. Or that she's somehow

managed to make Sir Patrick Stewart her nemesis. Not

to mention the fact that she's a woman. How can Jessica figure

out "to be or not to be," when she can't even figure out

herself? Featuring an all-female cast performing multiple

roles, Women Playing Hamlet is rip-roaring fun for

Shakespeare fans and haters alike.
