Rod Carley's Hamlet (1995)

Link to Database

"In seeking to shorten the gap between Shakespeare's world and our own, the play unfolds in the present within the fictitious South American state of San Marco. This contemporary military dictatorship provides an accessible and practical backdrop to the action and comes closer to representing the "Denmark" Shakespeare was referring to today." (from Rod Carley "Director's Notes")
