Fat Ham Tickets

Fat Ham Play Tickets

Kick back and watch one of Shakespeare’s classics come to life in an all-new light when you purchase Fat Ham tickets. The original theatrical production was written by critically-acclaimed playwright James Ijames and was co-produced by the National Black Theatre. The new drama centers around queer college kid, Juicy. Already dealing with self-identity issues, his life is made more complicated when the ghost of his father shows up in their backyard, suggesting that Juicy avenge his murder. Instantly, the scenario forces Juicy to recall one of Shakespeare’s classics, Hamlet. Though, Juicy is different than Hamlet in that he’s actively trying to break the cycles of trauma and violence for his own liberation.

Throughout the performance, you can expect themes of love, loss, pain, and joy to pop up. Upon its premiere, the play received raving reviews across several media publications, like The New York Times and The New Yorker. The former quoted it as being “hilarious yet profound,” whereas the latter touted it for being “uproarious.” The play was even a New York Times Critics’ Pick. Those looking for a modern take on Hamlet should consider getting Fat Ham tickets while the theatrical production is running at one of your local theatres. Playwright James Ijames boasts it as a “Hamlet narrative” that’s “queered” and “taken over by people of color.”
