National Theatre Live returns to the Festival Theatre big screen.
A fearless, contemporary take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy
Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) is Hamlet in this darkly funny reimagining of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Trapped between duty and doubt, surrounded by power and privilege, young Prince Hamlet dares to ask the ultimate question – you know the one.
National Theatre Deputy Artistic Director, Robert Hastie (Standing at the Sky’s Edge, Operation Mincemeat) directs this sharp, stylish play.
