Hamlet at The Bard’s Wagon Players
To go or not to go? That is the question! Technically it’s ‘be’ or ‘not be’ but with Shakespeare being hundreds of years of dead, I’m sure he’ll grant us this liberal creative license…especially considering what the world at large is doing to his canon from a musical standpoint!

The Bard’s Wagon Players is up and rolling around— at least rolling to Reisterstown this summer season and they’re tackling that dramatic drama known as Hamlet. Directed by Deb Carson, the wagon is parking itself both in Hannah More Center & Park for a two-weekend run and in the ambiguously political 1960’s. Hey, Shakespeare’s dead, so you can set his stuff whenever and wherever you want.
