🎭 Ophelia Chooses: A Delightful Comedy/Drama 🎭
Powerhouse Theatre invites you to experience Ophelia Chooses, a captivating play that reimagines Shakespeare’s Hamlet with a modern twist.
In this witty and heartfelt production, a contemporary playwright and feminist finds herself mysteriously transported into the world of Hamlet to help Ophelia rewrite her story. Ophelia becomes the architect of her own fate, challenging those who seek to control her – be they from Shakespeare’s time or her own.
Whether you’re a Shakespeare enthusiast, a casual fan, or new to the Bard’s works, Ophelia Chooses is sure to entertain and inspire!
