Social Butterfly: Michael Urie Performs HAMLET as Arnold Beckoff from TORCH SONG

Michael Urie has taken the #ShakespeareChallenge to a new level! The actor took to Twitter to post a video of himself performing Hamlet as Arnold Beckoff from Torch Song.

"I was lucky enough to play Arnold Bekhoff in [Torch Song] Off Broadway, then Hamlet at [Shakespeare in DC], then Arnold again ON Broadway, then Hamlet again - somewhere along the way, I guess I got confused," Urie writes.
