Women Playing Hamlet Reviews

DC Theater Arts- Recommended

"...I was unsure what to expect when I signed up to see Women Playing Hamlet, written by Williams Missouri Downs, at the Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton, Virginia. It would be an all-female production, naturally, but beyond that, I wasn’t able to find much information, except a brief description and a number of reviews from previous productions (not even Wikipedia had an entry). But any expectations I could have had were pleasantly exceeded by an intelligent, funny, and insightful original work focused on a young woman’s journey to take on a 400-year-old male character."
