To be or not to be...

Rollo Webster is a man with one sole ambition...to play Hamlet on Broadway.  With an inheritance and an acting company, he has two thirds of what he needs to realize his dream.
If only he had any talent.

A delightful comedy from 1920 by songwriter and playwright Clare Beecher Kummer that celebrates vaunting ambition, Society folly, and thespian excess.
(Clare Beecher Kummer is Harriet Beecher's grand-niece and William Gillette's cousin)
