The Story: What actor wouldn't want to play Hamlet for New York's famous Shakespeare in the Park? Answer: an intimidated television star whose show has just been cancelled and whose life is out of sorts. Enter the ghost of legendary Shakespearean actor John Barrymore to help the young man bring Hamlet to life. The young man's talent agent, virginal girlfriend, and a hot-to-trot real estate agent add to the comical absurdity.
