Olde Towne has a great opportunity for YOU! We are always looking for volunteer servers for our productions. The tasks are not difficult and experience is not required. Individuals, couples, families or groups are welcome! It’s a great way to meet new people, make new friends, and help Olde Towne provide the quality entertainment that our audiences have grown accustomed to enjoying.
Servers are welcome to feast on our great food and are invited to watch the play. Volunteering is a rewarding experience and we are always looking for volunteers for various projects around the theatre as well. Make plans now to give Olde Towne the help it needs because we’d be in a real crunch without you.

I Hate Hamlet
By Paul Rudnick
Andrew Rally seems to have it all: celebrity and acclaim from his starring role in a hit television series; a rich, beautiful girlfriend; a glamorous, devoted agent; the perfect New York apartment; and the chance to play Hamlet in Central Park. There are, however, a couple of glitches in paradise. Andrew’s series has been canceled; his girlfriend is clinging to her virginity with unyielding conviction; and he has no desire to play Hamlet. When Andrew’s agent visits him, she reminisces about her brief romance with John Barrymore many years ago, in Andrew’s apartment. This prompts a seance to summon his ghost. From the moment Barrymore returns, dressed in high Shakespearean garb, Andrew’s life is no longer his own. Barrymore, fortified by champagne and ego, presses Andrew to accept the part and fulfill his actor’s destiny. The laughs are nonstop as Andrew wrestles with his conscience, Barrymore, his sword, and his acting ability.
