12 Ophelias (a play with broken songs)

  • The Factory Theatre 1623 W Howard Street Chicago, IL, 60626 United States (map)

Strawdog Theatre Company | Directed by Kamille Dawkins | By Caridad Svich

In this play with broken songs, Shakespeare’s Ophelia rises out of the water dreaming of reclaiming her life. She finds herself in a neo-Elizabethan Appalachian setting where Gertrude runs a brothel, Hamlet is a Rude Boy and nothing is what it seems. In this mirrored world of word-scraps and cold sex, Ophelia cuts a new path for herself. 

Tickets available here.

Dylan is proud to be the understudy for Rude Boy in this production. Any performance that he will go on for will be specially noted.
