well it says that it would be performed live, so i figured those two were out.
regardless, the band has already been a part of movie soundtracks and this appears no different based on that brief write-up about it. if it turned into an Across The Universe like movie production i would still only be interested in the musical performances rather than the actual visual presentation/storyline of it.

nah I just can't decide if it would be really cool or really stupid, and if I want to go.

This rock and roll adaptation of Hamlet resets the existential revenge story in the Lower East Side in the 90s, condensing it into an adrenaline-fueled 80 minutes and framing the story with the songs of Pearl Jam, performed live.
Hamlet returns from college to find his uncle Claude married to his mother and plotting to turn the Elsinore, a historic Lower East Side building, into high priced modern condos in what will soon be known as the East Village. During a wild drug trip with his friend Horacio, he sees the ghost of his father, and vows revenge for his murder at the hands of Claude.
I assume the play ends with Hamlet embracing corporate culture to toe-tapping sounds of "Just Breathe."
This is actually the one moment where our collective cleverness fails us. Nothing we can come up with is as funny as what will actually occur. It's like trying to predict how many times Avengers 2 will look like a gay pride parade.
