About this event
The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) returns to Cornwall with a ‘must-see’ (Guardian) new production of Hamlet.
Hamlet’s mother has married his uncle, and at a less than decent interval since the death of his father. As he pulls at the threads of his not-so-happy new family, Hamlet unravels a web of deceit and immorality that leads to the ultimate crisis of conscience.
Fresh from its run in Stratford-upon-Avon, this ‘scintillating new staging’ (Financial Times) of Shakespeare’s famous revenge drama begins its major national tour at the Cornwall Playhouse.
The stellar creative team is led by multi-award-winning director Rupert Goold whose recent work includes Dear England (National Theatre) and King Charles III (Almeida Theatre). Ralph Davis will play Hamlet on tour, with further casting to be announced.
