Tickets now on sale for SEACT's I
Hate Hamlet
A dramatic comedy for the holiday season
DOTHAN, AL. November 11, 2012. The greatest success
of actor John Barrymore's career was as the lead role in Broadway's Hamlet in 1922. This month, Southeast Alabama Community Theatre
presents I Hate Hamlet, about a young television network star in present day. He is offered the coveted role of Hamlet in New York City's
Central Park and moves into famed actor John Barrymore's apartment, apprehensive about returning to the stage.
SEACT rings in the holiday season with this dramatic comedy by Paul Rudnick. The play was on Broadway for more
than 100 performances in 1991. Audiences will not miss Santa Claus with the ghost of Barrymore on stage, summoned by Felicia,
part-time realtor and part-time spiritual medium. Soap star Andrew Rally
struggles between his TV fame and the status of following
in Barrymore's footsteps. His girlfriend loves Shakespeare, but a
Hollywood friend makes Rally's decision more difficult with an offer of
even greater celebrity and a big paycheck.
