Bernhardt / Hamlet at Pax Amicus Castle Theatre

Mark Twain wrote: There are five kinds of actresses: bad actresses, fair actresses, good actresses, great actresses and then there is Sarah Bernhardt. In 1899, the international stage celebrity set out to tackle her most ambitious role yet: Hamlet. Theresa Rebecks new play rollicks with high comedy and human drama, set against the lavish Shakespearean production that could make or break Bernhardts career.
