The Boston Globe: Shakespeare’s tragedy, and our own

In rehearsal for “Our American Hamlet,” Jake Broder performs double duty. One minute he’s responding to director Steve Maler’s suggestion about how to deliver a sword to another character onstage, and the next he’s answering a question about rewriting dialogue at the top of an important scene. Broder, you see, is both playwright and an actor in the world premiere of “Our American Hamlet,” which runs Thursday through April 2 at Babson College’s Sorenson Center for the Arts.
