by Rosanne DellAversano - April 10, 2025

Rudnick wrote I HATE HAMLET in the early ‘90s, while living in the very same New York apartment which housed John Barrymore before he began performing his legendary Hamlet uptown. Rudnick believed the place provided a “strong inspiration” given its steep flights of stairs, walls of rough stucco, and a spooky, odd-shaped niche high in the wall, used for a candle (or a skull).
