Hollywood, CA — O, Fallen One is a brand new theatre piece that cracks open the text of Hamlet and explores the untold story of one of its most tragic characters: Ophelia. This insightful tale is told through the eyes of a girl of our time who, due to incredible emotional trauma, has retreated into Ophelia’s world. The piece explores Ophelia’s memories, dreams, and thoughts leading up to her death. As the doctors, nurses and loved ones fight to return her modern day counterpart to sanity, the young girl falls deeper into Ophelia’s reality. The original script by Sinan Zafar combines the words of Shakespeare and poetic movement, inventing a fluid world where loss,
oppression, and untold stories can be examined. Avid Shakespeare fans will recognize the words and the story, but they will have a unique opportunity to look at the story they know through a different lens.
