About this show
The King of Denmark is dead, and the Queen has married his brother. Prince Hamlet, seeing spirits and feigning madness, seeks out revenge. Famously faithful to the unabridged original text, director and actor Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation boasts a star studded cast and opulent, theatrical visuals. Exploring timeless themes of corruption, truth and madness, Hamlet proves itself as timely as ever in our modern era. A magnificent epic at just over four hours, the film has long been lauded as one of the best adaptations of Shakespeare’s greatest play.
