“I arrived grousing and left grinning, surprised that there was still ice on the streets. As far as I was concerned, the warmth and effervescence of what I had just witnessed had turned winter into springtime.” – Ben Brantley, The New York Times
“Top 10 Best Plays of 2013” – Time Magazine
“Bedlam Theatre Company works genuine miracles.” – New York Magazine, Scott Brown
“Thrilling! An unforgettable show! The most exciting George Bernard Shaw revival I’ve ever seen, bar none.” —Wall Street Journal, Terry Teachout
“A production to be treasured.” – New York Times, Eric Grode
“An engaging, highly physical production of Shakespeare’s complex masterpiece that feels as raw and incestuous as the state of Denmark itself.” — Time Out New York, Jenna Scherer
“Masterful. One of the most entertaining theatrical experiences of the season.” – Theatermania.Com, Pete Hempstead
The theatre we make always includes the audience. Storytelling is paramount to us. We believe that innovative use of space can collapse aesthetic distance and bring the audience into direct contact with the dangers and delicacies of life––inciting laughter and chaos, exciting thinking and recreating the thrill of lived experience.
