Hamlet Isn’t Dead believes Shakespeare can be fun for and understood by anyone, and we aim to make that true for our audiences through our use of language and storytelling alongside live music, joyful interpretation, and intimate staging. Our diverse community of artists and audiences reflects our NYC home and our core values of accessibility and inclusion. We are committed to maintaining an equitable, collaborative environment inclusive of the people and voices that are often neglected within the classical space. Hamlet Isn’t Dead (HID) has spent the past decade infusing Shakespeare's plays (as well as other classical and new works) with intimacy, immediacy, and joy. The HID-style breathes new life into these essential texts via live music, direct address, and plenty of playful "HIDiocy"!
