"Be to not or be to," exclaims Hamlet as he madly bounds through the state of Denmark backwards.  This and a multitude of other side-splitting Shakespeare "riffs" will leave audience members of all ages rolling in the aisles and tapping their toes in rhythm to the percussive "music" of iambic pentameter as three wild and crazy actors take audiences on a rollercoaster ride through the Bard's canon.
