Shakespeare’s Ophelia rises up out of the water dreaming of Pop-Tarts and other sweet things. She finds herself in a neo-Elizabethan Appalachian setting where Gertrude runs a brothel, Hamlet is called 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.

Originally developed at Powerhouse Theater at Vassar College, New Georges (NYC), and Baruch College; premiered with Woodshed Collective (Brooklyn).

Location: The Cabaret Theater, inside Hutchinson Hall at the UW main campus
