As Denmark declares another military victory over Sweden, in quiet Wittenberg, Germany, a scarred Swedish soldier, Galen, dares to win his Princess Margaret's love by conspiring to kidnap Prince Hamlet. But what they don't know is that Hamlet's brother Valdemar has come in secret to woo and marry Margaret to ratify the peace!

Plots converge to murder and bloody indulgence on the streets as Martin Luther prepares for Lent, 1517.

For those with a passion for Shakespeare comes a prequel to Shakespeare's Hamlet. Yes, this is full 5-Act play in iamic pentameter, complete with sword fights, monologues, and many twists. Also known as Bren's "Hamlet meets Martin Luther" story, Wittenberg was performed in New York City in 2004 to the wonder of audiences who loved its mix of Shakespearean romance, comedy and history.

This story begins in February, 1517, at the time Martin Luther first begins his campaign against the indulgence trade, which is several months before October 31, 1517, when the ghost of King Hamlet first walks the parapets of Elsinore, calling his son to avenge his untimely death.
