Brillig

**Enduring themes in *Hamlet:*** investigation of psyche, to thine own self be true, stop sawing the air with your hand so much when you're on stage. **Things that would help the members of this college freshman support group:** investigation of psyche, to thine own self be true, stop sawing the air with your hand so much when you're on stage. Ghosts from a production of *Hamlet* descend upon a college freshmen support group to irreverently pass on some keys to unlocking a better life (minus the poison/corruption/revenge bit), and get to the bottom of the question: is there ever an appropriate time to use *Jabberwocky* as an audition monologue? Think less brooding and more ukuleles. \*\*Want more like this? *Brillig* appears alongside two more Shakespeare-inspired one-acts by Dealey, forming the full length piece [*All The World.*](https://www.uproartheatrics.com/shows/all-the-world)

When a Halloween event at the college bumps the later-than-usual meeting of an emotional support group, three freshmen and a well-meaning facilitator relocate to the rarely used, and rumored to be haunted, campus theater. Breakthroughs are as doubtful for Sadie, Stella, and Alex as they are for three desperate ghosts from an old production of *Hamlet,* until they gyre and gimble through their own emotions, and possibly gain a fresh perspective on the undeserved bashing of a few slimy active badgers.
