Hamlet Visits the 1980s

Here's another Hamlet that I discovered too late to view.  The Redhouse Arts Center in Syracuse, NY, recently staged a production.  In the tradition of making Hamlet fit any historical context, the play was moved quite a few years into Shakespeare's future.  This time, Hamlet took on the 1980's, the decade of big hair, boom boxes and The Breakfast Club.  A local review is linked here for your reading enjoyment.
