“It’s a terrifically fast, fluent, attacking production..[.]” (The Guardian)

Hamlet is Shakespeare’s most iconic work. Exploding with big ideas it is the ultimate play about loyalty, love, betrayal, murder, and madness. In this stripped back, fresh, and fast-paced version from the Manchester Royal Exchange, Maxine Peake creates a Hamlet for now. This text of Hamlet was created for the 2009 production starring Jude Law and directed by Michael Grandage which played in London and New York.
