In Hamlet Prince of Skidmark Rich and Matt pull apart Shakespeare’s classic and glue it back together with theatrical tricks, preposterous props, supersonic silliness and a castle load of LOLS.

Hamlet is already full of things kids love in a good story – ghosts, castles, sword fights, bodily fluids and poison. The Listies add space pirates, ninjas, ninja pirates, aliens, ninja pirate aliens, oh, and zombies The only thing you can be sure of in this cheeky and irreverent badaptation of the bard is that everyone dies at the end – including the audience!
