NT Live – Hamlet
by William Shakespeare, directed by Robert Hastie
Filmed in front of a live audience, NT Live screenings give you the best seat in the house to see National Theatre productions from your favourite local venue. Each production is captured with several cameras, giving you emotional close-ups as well as dramatic full-stage shots, for an extraordinary theatre experience.
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.
