In A Bride for Hamlet, author Tom Grifa draws characters from eight different Shakespearean plays to engage his audiences in "having fun with Shakespeare." What would Hamlet's life be like if Claudius had not murdered Hamlet's father, yet still seduced and married his mother? This comedic drama parodies Shakespeare's Hamlet by having the Prince forced to choose a bride whose royalty and wealth will merge with Denmark's to make Hamlet's country a power once again. Hamlet's dilemma is two-fold: he does not want to marry so soon after his father's death; nor does he wish to marry someone whom he does not know or love. Polonius sets up interviews with five women, all of whom were in other Shakespearean dramas. The plot thickens as the treachery begins.

Autorenporträt
Dr. Thomas C. Grifa attended Rutgers University as an undergraduate majoring in English. It is there where his interest in Shakespeare developed. He went on to receive his Master's degree at Rutgers and his Doctorate at Seton Hall University. After thirty-five years as an English teacher and school administrator, he and his wife Judy retired to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Dr. Grifa recently published his book Like the Melody That's Sweetly Played in Tune, which depicts a young precocious girl who travels through life's maze. He describes A Bride for Hamlet as a comedic drama written in blank verse for lovers of Shakespeare.
