Hamlet

HamletT01936299976
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.
Author Shakespeare

Production details

Set in the classroom of the twentieth century - Hamlet struggles to survive the confederacy of bullies and fools that threaten his very existence. It can only end in tears but there is a heap of gallows humour on the way.
