Subject:        Small Cast Hamlets

I am in the process of researching and planning what I hope will be a
6-person production of "Hamlet" next summer.  I know that very
small-cast productions of Shakespeare's plays have been staged in the
past, but I don't have much info on them.  Does anyone know of any?  I'm
especially
interested in "Hamlet", of course, but would also like to hear about how
other scripts were "pulled off."  I have lots of experience directing
Shakespeare with casts of 11-12 actors and I know how that can work, but
I'm not as sure of a 6-person approach (or less!).  Thanks for the help,
