Shakespeare’s Ophelia finds herself marooned in Texas during the time of COVID…or is it Denmark? This radical deconstruction of “Hamlet” refocuses the story on a modern, scholarly Ophelia as her path is altered by personal tragedies, the ongoing plague, and the red tape of a red state. Saugerties’ Round the Bend Theatre presents a staged reading of D.L. Siegel’s “Heartbeat Ophelia” on Saturday September 24 at 7:30pm and Sunday September 25 at 2:00pm on Bridge Street Theatre’s “Priscilla” Mainstage, located at 44 West Bridge Street in Catskill, NY. Admission is by a suggested $10 donation and is available at the door on the day of performance only, one half hour before curtain time. For more information, visit roundthebendtheatre.org online.
