SHAKESPEARE: HAMLET
Director Martin Parr talks to Heather Neill about his radically abbreviated Hamlet, which is being performed at the archaeological site of the Elizabethan Rose theatre on London’s Southbank. With a running time of 90 minutes and a handful of actors, this is billed as a most intense and dramatic version of the play. Recorded: 11 February 2013.
This production is a chamber piece – and a thriller.
