Review: A rotating band of narrators help usher Charles Dickens' classic to the modern stage.
Not one, but two plays appear within Syracuse Stage’s production of Great Expectations, and the various levels of drama do not stop there.
In one of those scenes, which fans of Charles Dickens may recall from the original source material, young hero Pip attends a production of Hamlet. So terrible is this prince of Denmark that his London audience chimes in on the debate whether he should “be” or “not be,” eliciting laughs from the true audience.
