The Merc Playhouse Proudly Presents:
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead
by Tom Stoppard
A dramatic comedie directed by Jeremy Lindholm
Starring: Damon Abdallah, Damon Mentzer,
Ginny Abdallah and Dan Anderson
If you liked Hamlet, you'll love Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. These two characters appear in Shakespeare's Hamlet as Hamlet's good friends. They are commissioned by Gertrude and Claudius (Hamlet's Mother and "Uncle/Step-Father") to discover what is troubling poor Hamlet. There is much contemplation and playing with notions of reality of life and death, in this delightfully paced play. Tom Stoppard picks up where Shakespeare left off in a hilarious chain of events leading up to their tragic, and entirely theatrical demise.
Directed by Jeremy Lindholm (Jacob Marley, Complete History of America) Starring Damon Abdallah (Visiting Mr. Green, Jacob Marley, Fully Committed), Ginny Abdallah (Complete History of America, Jacob Marley, Fully Committed) and wonderful newcomers to the Merc, Daniel Anderson and Damon Mentzer, both accomplished young actors from Spokane, WA.. Also look for a supporting cast of local Methow Valley talents.
