I Hate Hamlet
"Hate it or love it - either way this Hamlet will make you
laugh!"
Andrew is a TV actor who finds himself cast as the lead in Hamlet
for New York City's Shakespeare in the Park. He is also moving
in to John Barrymore's old home while he stays in NYC. His
girlfriend is practicing abstinence, his LA friend thinks stage acting
is a waste of time, his realtor is a loon, his agent is pushy and the
ghost of John Barrymore begins to haunt him. To make matters worse
he realizes he hates the play Hamlet but is stuck having to play
the seminal role.

"Impeccably politically incorrect." - New York Post
David Mamet's Oval Office satire centers on President Charles H.P.
Smith on the eve of losing his bid for second term (his numbers are
"lower than Gandhi's cholesterol"). Straight from Broadway,
starring Nathan Lane, ARTI is proud to bring November to Idaho
Falls.
