About

Corruption and deceit are rife in this Shakespearean tragedy. The voice of Hamlet’s father wants vengeance for his murder. Revenge is sought, and in contemplating life and death, the famous question is asked. In the centenary year of Richard Burton, the College explores the many faces of Hamlet, celebrating this iconic actor’s most famous role.

By William Shakespeare

Director Joanna Bowman
