4 Hamlets from Where There’s a Will

Sharing a preview of a new Pushkin show, Where There’s a Will, which searches for the surprising places Shakespeare shows up outside the theater. You’ll hear Shakespeare doing rehabilitative work in a maximum security prison, helping autistic kids to communicate, shaping religious observances, in the Oval Office, and even at the center of a deadly riot in New York City. Uncover the ways Shakespeare endures in our modern society, and what that says about us. In this preview: Hamlet is everywhere right now. But not the same play you read in high school English. We meet the minds behind a singing Hamlet, The Northman's Amleth, and Pulitzer prizewinner Fat Ham's Juicy – and ponder what makes this Shakespearean tragedy speak directly to our time.

Pushkin. Hey everyone, this is Justin Richmond, host of Broken Record and starting from the bottom. As a Pushkin listener, you know, you get to hear from some of the most talented and creative people around. But I have to say there are some creative minds who feel a cut above the rest, who are particularly fascinating. I'd put Steve Martin in that category. He's an incredible actor, writer, comedic, performer, musician, and it turns out even has
