about the show
Heads or tails, man or woman, north or south, question or answer, alive or dead. Simple binaries on which our society exists, right? Wrong. In 3DaysPrior’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, binaries crumble; 87 coins come down heads 87 times in a row, women are men and men are women and some are neither, south is down, there are no answers, and no one is quite sure whether Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are alive or already dead. With women in traditionally male roles such as Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, Hamlet, and the Player, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead becomes an absurd inerrogation of the nature of gender and masculinity and their intersection with privilege and class.
