James Ijames' Pulitzer Prize-winning play comes to you! Fat Ham is a wildly imaginative and socially-charged reimagining of Shakespeare's classic, Hamlet. Instead of a Danish castle however, this time our story takes place at a BBQ cookout in Southern America where Juicy, a queer college student, must decide whether to avenge his father's death or carve a new path for his future.

All the excitement of improvisation is showcased through classic wit and think-on-your-feet comedy. Founded in 2005, the Chicago-based collective, The Improvised Shakespeare Company draws on the collected works of one William Shakespeare to create an impulsive and one-of-a-kind Shakespearean masterpiece every night that has never been seen before and will never be seen again!
