The Pantaloons: Hamlet

“Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t!”

When he discovers that his uncle has murdered his father, married his mother and traitorously taken the crown of Denmark there’s only one course of action for Hamlet: feign madness, frequently monologue and take swift revenge. But outrageous fortune has other plans for the poor Prince of Denmark…

With live music, audience interaction, brevity-boosting abridgements, comic turns and tragic twists there’s only one question: To be there, or to be square?

Remember to bring something to sit on. There will be an outdoor bar selling cold drinks, ice cream, and alcohol throughout the performance. You are also welcome to bring your own picnic. The performance will go ahead even if it is raining, so please dress for the weather. Please do not bring large beach-style parasols, as these will block people’s view of the performance.

This is a fundraising event for the Palace Trust.
