The Alabama Shakespeare Festival will present the Folger Shakespeare Library's one-man play, THE GRAVEDIGGER'S TALE in October 2016.  An interactive piece based on Shakespeare's HAMLET, the play features the gravedigger, who knows more about court life in Elsinore than previously known, answering the audiences' questions using text from HAMLET.  ASF will present two public performances and four performances solely for students.
