About the show
The Royal Shakespeare Company returns to Newcastle with a spectacular new production of Hamlet.
Hamlet’s mother has married his uncle, and at a less than decent interval too. 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 gripping production of Shakespeare’s famous revenge drama visits Newcastle Theatre Royal as part of a major national tour.
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).
