National Theatre Live
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.
★★★★ “…pacey, vibrant and completely modern…simple yet sumptuous…cleverly filmed…”
★★★ “…Hamlet as a sarcastic, sassy bisexual prince…Abeysekera’s Hamlet brings a comedic relief to the tragedy…”
★★★★ “…National Theatre Live: Hamlet brilliantly captures all the gripping drama and witty comedy of the production.”

This performance is General Admission (GA), patrons are able to select seat(s) upon entry to the venue.
