Andrew Rally’s life seems like a success — he’s a TV star with a fabulous girlfriend, a devoted agent, a great Manhattan apartment, and a contract to play Hamlet, one of the most coveted roles in theater. But his TV series has been canceled, his relationship may be falling apart, and deep down, he has no desire to play Hamlet at all. During a séance, the ghost of legendary actor John Barrymore appears in full Shakespearean garb, determined to help Andrew become a great Hamlet. What follows is a fast-paced theatrical romp filled with outrageous comedy, backstage chaos, and Shakespearean flair. As The New York Times declared, the show is “… unapologetically silly and at times hilarious …”
