Studio C Presents MY BROOKLYN HAMLET

Brenda Adelman's one-woman show "My Brooklyn Hamlet" prepares for a 6 week Hollywood run at Studio C Artists (6448 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles CA 90038), opened March 22 at 8pm. My Brooklyn Hamlet is Brenda's one-woman show about family, murder, love betrayal and the power of forgiveness. In 1995 Brenda's mother was shot and killed by her father, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter. Her father served two years in prison and upon release married her aunt, sending Brenda into a deep depression that could only be saved by her writing and performing.

After receiving a Master's degree in Spiritual Psychology, Brenda has triumphed and moved on to write My Brooklyn Hamlet, a comedic story about the art of forgiveness, loving again and overcoming obstacles that can hold you back from enjoying life. With successful runs at The Leeds International Performing Arts Festival (London, England), The New End Theatre (London, England), Celebration Theatre (Los Angeles), Bang Comedy Theatre (Los Angeles), Philip Cotloff Center (NYC, NY), and Pulse Ensemble Theatre (NYC, NY) and many more, My Brooklyn Hamlet is poised for a six-week run.

Scheduled run: 8pm: March 22,23,29,31
8pm: April 5,7,12,14,19,21,26,28
