Arc Stages presents Auditions for Enter Hamlet!

Enter Hamlet is what happens when William Shakespeare meets Rod Serling. In this Twilight Zone-inspired musical adaptation of Hamlet, a group of theatergoers find themselves unexpectedly stuck in a production of the Bard’s greatest play – with deadly consequences! With original songs and an inventive story, Enter Hamlet truly brings new meaning to the phrase “the show must go on.”

We are excited to produce an original musical for the first time on the Community Stage. This production will give actors the opportunity to develop and originate characters in a unique way. Enter Hamlet grapples with the relevance of art in our modern society, and its ability to impact our daily lives.
