HAMLET

“Rachel Sanderson is wonderful as Hamlet, who prances playfully along the set, broods over his turmoil, and cavorts with buddies, running the gamut of emotions with easygoing grace and charm…Sanderson’s Hamlet has a steady center that keeps him grounded enough to keep his focus, plot to expose his uncle’s wretched deeds, and seek revenge.” (Debbie Minter Jackson, DC Theatre Arts)

“The most unique and affecting part of this performance was Hamlet’s characterization…Sanderson lean[s] into the grief and mania of his unprocessed parental loss. Sanderson flipped her countenance with startling ease and had a delirious conviction to her monologues, emphasizing that Hamlet is not in his right mind after Old Hamlet’s death.” (Audrey Cahack, Broadway World)
