NYT presents Two Acts of Shakespeare.
Cat Mathews directs Canned Hamlet. Life ain't easy for Hamlet. His dad's a ghost, his mother's an adulterer, and he can't make it through a soliloquy without being interrupted. Canned Hamlet is a one-act satirical spoof of Shakespeare's original.
George Perkins directs Mmmbeth!. A hilarious gender-bending take on the Scottish play! Everything goes wrong. The witches take over the storytelling, Queen Duncan would rather open a donut franchise than die, Lady M's a bloodthirsty June Cleaver, and the murderers are preoccupied with creating a commercial for their services.
