BWW Interviews: Classical Theatre Company's JJ Johnston Talks Edward Snowden Inspired HAMLET

Mystery, murder, espionage, blackmail, sexual scandal, madness, and a ghost are prized dramatic ingredients. Often when these elements are brought together, the world is plagued by some lowbrow, low budget B movie that airs incessantly on SyFy.

Giving what many consider the crowning jewel of drama written in the English language a modern facelift, Classical Theatre Company (CTC) is opening their season with a production of HAMLET that is informed by Edward Snowden and the NSA scandal. Taking time out of his busy schedule CTC Artistic Director and Director of HAMLET JJ Johnston chatted with me about his upcoming production of the cherished title.
