HAMLET

By William Shakespeare

Directed by Des McAnuff

TIME IS OUT OF JOINT

When a ghostly visitor reveals a shocking secret, Prince Hamlet is drawn into a search for truth that challenges everything he believes. Spectacularly unsettling and emotionally charged, this thrilling new staging is set in postwar Europe amidst the growing Soviet menace. Returning home to Denmark after his father’s death, Hamlet finds his uncle on the throne and his recently widowed mother remarried to him. He struggles to uncover the truth behind his father’s fate, only to become ensnared in a web of deception, surveillance and revenge. As the play hurtles toward one of the most gripping and devastating conclusions in all of drama, Hamlet finds himself questioning the very foundations of his world.
