"I Hate Hamlet"

Tennessee Stage Company presents its fifth annual Timeless Works Series Production: Paul Rudnick’s hysterical comedy "I Hate Hamlet"

Tickets on sale now: limited availability. Call (865) 546-4280 for Reservations. This is a benefit production for the Tennessee Stage Company.

The Tennessee Stage Company, known to Knoxville audiences for Shakespeare On The Square and the New Play Festival returns to our Timeless Works series this fall with the modern classic, "I Hate Hamlet." This most outrageous of comedies is a ghost story wrapped up in a theatrical farce. A young Hollywood television star comes to New York to play the role of Hamlet in Shakespeare In The Park. Hopelessly out of his depth he gets surprise tutoring – from the ghost of John Barrymore – dead for seventy years but called back from the other side to assist a young Hamlet in desperate need!

Since its inception the Tennessee Stage Company has been committed to paying a competitive wage to area artists. Many of these same artists are donating their time and talent in this production of "I Hate Hamlet" to benefit the Tennessee Stage Company.
