We go behind the scenes and unpack the creation of Prince Hamlet, Why Not Theatre's remixed, reimagined, and bilingual staging of Shakespeare's 400 year-old play that recently had its BC premiere at the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival. We talk with director Ravi Jain about his directorial process and gain additional insights from actors Karen Robinson (Schitt's Creek), Jeff Ho, and producer Kevin Matthew Wong.
