Set in a neo-Elizabethan Appalachian landscape, the play reimagines Shakespeare's Ophelia as she emerges from water, dreaming of Pop-Tarts. In a world where Gertrude operates a brothel and Hamlet is a Rude Boy, the narrative unfolds with unexpected twists. Ophelia navigates a surreal environment filled with fragmented language and complex relationships, ultimately forging her own identity amidst the chaos. The blend of humor and darkness challenges traditional perceptions, offering a fresh take on classic themes.
