Umlaut Prince of Dusseldorf

The latest in Michael Green's hilarious Coarse Acting series, Umlaut Prince of Dusseldorf imagines a hapless and incompetent theatre company attempting a condensed version of Hamlet. Cue bungled lines, an over-eager smoke machine operator, and a severely injured Cup Bearer. The ghost is determined to ruin all of Umlaut's best speeches, while Hildegard, the Coarse Acting version of Ophelia, keeps forgetting that she's supposed to be dead. Cast and crew battle on regardless – surely the audience won't have noticed a thing?
