Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead at Capitol Theatre

Hailed as one of the most important plays of the 20th century, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, tells the comic and tragic story of two minor characters originally portrayed in William Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Tom Stoppard’s play poses many questions about the absurdity of life and its meaning. Throughout the play no clear answers are provided, but as the two characters comically stumble their way in and out of the action Stoppard demands that the questions be seriously considered.

This Tamworth Dramatic Society ‘made in Tamworth’ production, directed by Glendon Fletcher, is a bright, funny and immersive production that will appeal to lovers of contemporary cutting edge theatre and classic plays alike!
