Hamlet and Hutch is about an aging actor, who may be in the early stages of dementia, but has been asked to help save a small theater by coming to town and performing in a production of Shakespeare's Hamlet, Sanders told the newspaper.

In addition to directing local productions of Shakespeare plays, Sanders, a radio personality at Cartersville's WBHF—AM 1450, owner of AJS Productions and a Cartersville Patch contributor, has appeared in a small feature film, ShrimpCrawl, and a Hooters commercial, according to his YouTube channel.
