• A secret stage, London, 1605. Moll Cutpurse is the Roaring Girl. Dressed as a man, brawling, boasting and breaking the rules, she's the toast of the Elizabethan underworld. Renegades like her spice the crowded taverns and infiltrate the playhouses. Tonight, Moll has gathered a motley troupe of these rogues and those women who work, marry and mother. Together, they will perform for you an outlawed act - an all- women performance of Hamlet.
  
  Plunged into a world of treachery and dissemblance, Hamlet is charged with a cruel duty. But discovering the truth will not be the worst. Surviving his unnatural knowledge demands a brutal coming-of-age. Questioning his reason and testing his identity, the young prince travels a universal journey, freshly expressed in a woman's voice.
