This new one-act, two-person play written and performed by the author of “Jerry Atric” and “Jerry and Ed” is not to be missed. “The Gravediggers’ Gift,” with characters based on the insightfully wry gravediggers from Shakespeare’s “Hamlet,” presents a unique concoction of comedy, mystery and drama. The gravediggers, now father and son, meet at the cemetery late at night, for reasons known only to the son. They talk about meeting Shakespeare and Marlowe, alehouse brawls, religious intolerance and life in the late fifteen hundreds. As their true purpose for meeting slowly comes to light, we see the powerful gift of a gravedigger’s honor, duty and love.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Springfield Cultural Councile, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
