Maxine Peake as Hamlet

Hamlet is Shakespeare’s most iconic work and is the ultimate story of loyalty, love, betrayal, murder and madness. Hamlet, consumed by despair, struggles to exact revenge for his father’s murder, with devastating consequences. This stripped-back, fast-paced version with moments of humour is a captivating production that rebalances gender casting. Peake’s Hamlet is a female character who takes on a male mantle, a fierce and textured Hamlet who imbues the role with anger, indignation and purpose.
