"Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" Seeks Teen Talent
Looking for boys and girls in "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead." See the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: Two minor characters from Hamlet suddenly find themselves at the center of one of theatre’s funniest and imaginative comedies and Stoppard’s most well known work. As the two lead characters search for answers, they encounter actors, royalty, pirates, impossible coincidences, and a world that never quite explains itself or lets them in on the full story. Filled with fast-paced wordplay, unforgettable performances, and surprising heart, Tom Stoppard’s modern classic is less about Shakespeare and more about all of us trying to figure out where we fit.
