Pan Pan: THE REHEARSAL, PLAYING THE DANE Plays Samuel Beckett Theatre

Pan Pan- It's all about prodigality. What this show gives you is not the routine repetition of Shakespeare's words and imagery but the Shakespearean experience.

The Rehearsal, Playing the Dane explores the rational and irrational concept of choice through the Hamlet Complex. Hamlet is of no genre. Shakespeare matters to our sense of who we are. This show is a meditation upon human fragility in confrontation with death.

You cannot get beyond Hamlet. Hamlet establishes the limits of theatricality.
