Peter Morgan's Tony Award-nominated play that spawned the critically acclaimed 2006 film pits jet-setting British TV talk-show host David Frost against disgraced former president Richard Nixon in a battle of wits and wills. Desperate to regain his slipped standing as a serious journalist, Frost seeks to elicit from the Watergate-plagued Nixon a detailed explanation and apology, while the ever-political former president has his own agenda. This fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the famous 1977 series of interviews dissects the electrifying battle between Nixon and Frost, revealing both mens insecurities, ego and sense of dignity as they face off in a historic encounter that ultimately changes them both.

A great mix of improv humor and audience participation, while not losing the "heart" of Hamlet. I had a great time and would go see it again. If you like theater that is a little "out of the ordinary", I highly suggest you check this out.

This was a great show!!! The actors were funny and great with their improv. Most of the famous lines from Hamlet were in the play but the actors were able to give each puppet a very realistic and distinct "personality". The show started 20 mins later, however all the actors were able to play it off as if it was part of the show. The kept making light and fun of the situation which was great. They also interactive with the crowd as well. Great show. Will go again if they have another of "William's" play (not Shakespearian because as the actors said it was a very loose interpretation of his play) LOL. Great time.

This thing was fantastic. It was a great mix of comedy and classic Shakespeare. The actors and their puppets were awesome and some of the ad libs were first rate. The show ran 75 minutes straight without an intermission. The venue is extremely small and cozy so be prepared to get a little clausterphobic and hope that everyone showered.
