"Madness in great ones must not unwatch'd go."

 

 

Bringing a modern understanding of mental health to a classic piece of text, supported by some Shakespearean supplements, Skipping Stones Theatre drags Elsinore into the 21st Century. This adaptation of Hamlet focuses on this famous Dane's experience of isolation, bipolar disorder, and surveillance.
