The 2024 Season: Hamlet and Much Ado About Nothing.

Schedule of Events:

Hamlet:

Directed by Doug Scholz-Carlson

“The readiness is all”

What is the truth? How can one take action when the truth is uncertain? Hamlet is a fast-moving revenge play that manages to ask some of the most profound, human questions. Even when he knows that “something is rotten in the state of Denmark,” what action can Hamlet take to make the world right? And what are the consequences of not acting? Come see one of GRSF’s greatest actors, Tarah Flanagan, explore one of the most complex, nuanced, and thrilling roles ever written.

Much Ado about Nothing:

Directed by Gaby Rodriguez

"What your wisdoms could not discover, these shallow fools have brought to light."

A group of soldiers returns home to Messina and the entire neighborhood throws a block party to welcome them! As the party goes on and reunions occur, chaos and love abound. At the heart of it are Beatrice and Benedick, fiercely witty and sworn adversaries of love. Yet, amidst the playful exchanges and elaborate schemes, their hearts unwittingly fall for each other. Meanwhile, a malicious plot ensues as Don John and his minions attempt to come between the romance of Claudio and Hero. Watching all of the mayhem is a group of intrepid kids led by Dogberry, who together will protect the neighborhood and restore the peace. Come enjoy this production filled with love, comedy, music, and celebration!
