Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead

The story you know told in a way you won't.

“Give us this day our daily mask.”

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead is Tom Stoppard’s relentlessly funny and absurd subversion of the story of Hamlet, as told from the point of view of the titular minor characters. We follow the comic pair as they attempt to navigate their way through a plot that uses them up and spits them out, all the while trying to grasp onto some form of meaning in their illogical situation.
