Howard Miller takes a look at Fat Ham at the American Airlines Theatre:
Fat Ham, James Ijames' fanciful Pulitzer Prize-winning riff on Hamlet that opened tonight at the American Airlines Theatre, takes a sad tale about bloody vengeance and reconfigures it into a joyful celebration of love and a quest for self-determination. And happily, not only has nothing been lost in the move to Broadway from the Public Theater where it ran from May to July of 2022, but much has been gained. |
