What is it?

Somesuch Theatre presents Remember Me, a most unusual Hamlet. This condensed version of Shakespeare’s play is intertwined with a co-plot involving some highly eccentric and diverse characters.  Join them in their quest to understand who Hamlet is, and why he behaves the way he does.  At the same time you can enjoy their own strange journeys through doubt, and beyond it, into love.
