About I Hate Hamlet:
Successful television actor Andrew Rally seems to have it all: a hit TV career, a charming girlfriend, and the chance to star as Hamlet in New York’s Shakespeare in the Park. There’s just one problem: Andrew hates Shakespeare. As he struggles with self-doubt, artistic ambition, and the pressure of taking on one of theatre’s greatest roles, he finds unexpected guidance from the ghost of legendary actor John Barrymore, who once played Hamlet himself.
