Theatre In The Roud Players Present ROSENCRANTZ AND GUILDENSTERN ARE DEAD

Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) opens its 59th season as the oldest theatre inMinneapolis with Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead in weekendperformances September 10 through October 3.

This 1967 absurdist comedy is a look at Hamlet from the viewpoint of two of its minorcharacters, the college chums of the Prince of Denmark. We follow these silly, rather likable Elizabethan courtiers as they ponder and pontificate on their journey to Elsinore --completely clueless as to why they're there, what's their purpose, and even who they are exactly. This award-winning and highly-praised farce is Stoppard's most produced work anda showcase for his brilliant wordplay.

John Gaspard directs a cast of seventeen, featuring Connor Bohne as Rosencrantz and Dietrich Poppen as Guildenstern. Sets are designed by Chad van Kekerix, costumes byRebecca Ballas, and lighting by Peter Mitchell, with music composed by Don Sweet.

An audience discussion with director Gaspard and members of the company will follow thematinee performance on Sunday, September 26th.Tickets are $20, with discounts for seniors and a student price of $10 on Fridays andSundays.
