Description

New adaptation of 'Hamlet' for a modern black theatrical production. Remember me Denmark, a Black Empire of modern England, where an intelligent young student discovers the world he once knew has crumbled. Implored to defend what is left of his fathers decaying legacy, Hamlet now faces the greatest moral challenge to kill or not to kill. Directed by Jeffery Kissoon (RSC, National Theatre, Robert Lepage, Peter Hall and in Peter Brooks seminal production of The Mahabharata) and adapted with Shakespeares text by award-winning playwright Mark Norfolk, this fast-moving version gets straight to the heart of a young mans dilemma. This first all-black production of Hamlet in Britain makes a striking contribution to the Shakespeare 400 anniversary celebration. For ages 12+
