Written between 1599 and 1601. The play, set in Denmark, recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Gertrude, Hamlet's mother. The play vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness - from overwhelming grief to seething rage - and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption. Shakespeare’s tragedy is transformed into an elegant tour-de-force of minimalist theatre in this acclaimed Danish production, performed in English, using tow double-bass players and two actors.| 4 Mar 08 to 10 Mar 08 | Theatre Royal Bath, Bath & North East Somerset Performance Details => Venue archive |
