Hamlet
Author(s):
William Shakespeare
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.
The death of his father, the king, turns Hamlet’s world upside down. Stunned by the horrifying secrets revealed, he loses all trust in the people closest to him.
Amidst a maelstrom of grief, suspicion and doubt, he embarks on a profound journey of self-discovery in which the betrayal of friends and family—and the decay at the heart of the state—are laid bare.
Justin Audibert, Artistic Director of CFT, directs Chichester’s first ever production of Shakespeare’s tragedy.
Giles Terera, winner of an Olivier Award for Hamilton (West End) and Critics’ Circle Best Actor Award for Blues for an Alabama Sky and the title role in Othello at the National Theatre, plays Hamlet.
