Is equality a state of mind or state of affairs? Can gender ever be freed from the masculine/feminine paradigm? The patriarchal state may seem a thing of the past but what if the struggle for power and survival make it our future. Inspired by the "He For She" Campaign, a first of its kind, which acknowledges the need for men in the women's movement, A.N.O.N. Productions is proud to present a return of their successful 2015 take on HAMLET, set in the near future. In a militarized surveillance state, can a woman be in charge? This gender-bending equality driven take on HAMLET will premiere at The Kraine (85 East 4th Street) November 17th - 19th, 20th, 23rd, and December 3rd - 4th

"If we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by what we are-we can all be freer and this is what HeForShe is about. It's about freedom."

- Emma Watson, Ambassador, "HeForShe Campaign"

Directed by Ashley Griffin and featuring: Michael Bauer*, Ryan Clardy*, Jennifer-Elizabeth Cooper*, Ashley Rebecca Farley, Elise Gainer, Ashley Griffin*, Abby Hart*, James Luse*, Anthony Michael Martinez*, and Brian McCormack*. Our Hamlet is a woman raised to be a man and ruthless leader. Our Ophelia is a man, bullied for being too gentle. All sexes being equal, who has the power?
