Loved Eric Billitzer’s “NOBODY NEEDS ANOTHER HAMLET.”
Eric engages the audience with his humor from the start. His writing and performance is entertaining, moving and educational. If you like Shakespeare, you will love his show. If you understand Shakespeare, you will like it a lot. It was so wonderful to be back at the theater again, laughing with fellow audience members. ...

Eric Billitzer takes us on a concise and humorous journey through some of Shakespeare’s monologues. On the way, he explains and performs several monologues, and intersperses that with thoughts on Shakespeare from a modern-day perspective, while also sprinkling in stories from his personal life. This show will appeal to anyone, whether they are familiar with Shakespeare or not....

A+ for Most Imaginative Title of the 2021 Fringe, suggesting Wit and Insight! The show, though, is more like a hour-long class with a favorite old professor who likes to perform Snippets of Shakespeare as he retreads the familiar facts of the author's life, abetted by a bag of imaginative hand props.
NOT for anyone to whom Shakespeare is a foreign language!...
