Spotlight: FAT HAM at Seattle Rep

“Hilarious yet profound tragedy smothered in comedy” — The New York Times Get ready to feast on the deliciously comedic world of Fat Ham! Meet Juicy, a young queer Black man who has a lot on his plate.

His mother just married his uncle after the untimely death of his father, whose ghost appears at a family barbecue demanding that Juicy avenge his murder. Sound familiar?

Fresh from its Broadway debut, this Pulitzer Prize-winning and Tony-nominated play inspired by Shakespeare’s Hamlet is a sparkling and uproarious new comedy about seeking love and liberation.
