Photos: 'Bound In A Nutshell' At The Fringe

By:

BOUND IN A NUTSHELL is a 90-minute adaptation of "Hamlet" -- every word of which is Shakespeare's own -- set in a modern-day prison, complete with security cameras, prison guards and torture chambers. From this vantage point, the play depicts Hamlet's incarceration and trial for murder of Polonius and Ophelia's testimony against him. While a prosecutor builds a case of circumstantial evidence, security cameras watch Hamlet's every move as he plots revenge against his father's assassins.

Only three performances remain for BOUND IN A NUTSHELL, a part of FringeNYC 2008: Friday, August 15 at 9:15pm; Tuesday, August 19 at 9:15pm; and Saturday, August 23 at 4:30pm at The Cherry Lane Theatre (38 Commerce Street, just off 7th Avenue). General admission tickets are $15; advance tickets are available online at www.fringenyc.org, or by calling 866-468-7619.
