by William
Shakespeare

Hastie
Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) is
Hamlet in this fearless, contemporary take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.
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
and darkly funny reimagining.
