MSUM presents Hamlet Feb. 24-27

MSUM Theatre presents Hamlet February 24 through 27 at 7:30 p.m. in the Roland Dille Center for the Arts Gaede Stage. “To be, or not to be?”
 is one of the most famous questions ever asked by one of the most famous theatrical characters of all time. In Hamlet, a powerful and influential tragedy, Shakespeare vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption.
