    The Many Faces of Hamlet
    Ray Hartstein Campus
    7701 North Lincoln Avenue, Skokie
    Coordinated by Beverly Friend, Ph.D.

    Join Artistic Director Michael Halberstam as he gives the first of a
    series of lectures at Oakton College on what has been called
    Shakespeare's greatest play.  The lectures will range from "Freud,
    Hamlet, and the Presidential Candidates," to the impact of director's choices and the role of critical evaluation. Experience the Danish prince as portrayed by Laurence Olivier, Mel Gibson, and Ethan Hawke, and consider Hamlet's influence on popular culture, from Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead, to Julie Taymor's The Lion King.

    Tickets for the lecture are $15.  Please call 847-635-1414 for more
    information on the lecture series.
