About: Shamlet
It's the heist of the millennium. Marcus, a small-time producer with an unwholesome obsession for Shakespeare, is plotting to steal the bard's remains from his grave in Stratford-upon-Avon. As a front for his clandestine activities, Marcus has duped an unwitting troupe of incompetent actors into staging a Shakespeare play.
Witness the trials of a true Shakespeare fanatic as he contends with temperamental drama queens, backstage calamities, an eccentric Lithuanian widow, an Irish nun, and even the occasional confrontation with the immortal bard himself.
