Fakespeare

American Vaudeville Co.—Red River College Polytechnic

This show was a whirlwind in the best way. Welcome to a wildly condensed version of Shakespeare, of which I saw Hamlet. Fit within a half hour time slot, Hercamp is an expert in Shakespeare, brilliant at bringing this tragic story to life in a way that is both extremely entertaining and very understandable. Using our modern day slang and vernacular, an outrageous story of death and betrayal is transformed into a comedy, and gets the audience involved in an energetic way. It is extremely fun, make sure you check this one out!
