Hamlet
April 29 @ 7:30 pm – 10:30 pm EDT
Kicking off an ongoing partnership between BAM and the National Theatre, director Robert Hastie (Operation Mincemeat) brings his witty, fearlessly contemporary take on Hamlet across the Atlantic for a four-week run. Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) stars in this sharp, darkly funny reimagining of Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.
Since its first staging at BAM in 1861, Hamlet has returned more than a dozen times, helmed by luminaries like Ingmar Bergman, Peter Brook, and Thomas Ostermeier. Now, Hastie’s fresh new production marks yet another groundbreaking entry into BAM’s legacy of daring Hamlets.
