Hamlet

Australia's longest running outdoor theatre company are introducing an indoor studio season from 10-28 June. Launching the series is a new production of Shakespeare's most unforgettable tragedy and one of the most celebrated plays ever written: Hamlet.   

For the past 27 summers, Melbournians have been entertained by large-scale Australian Shakespeare Company productions under the stars. Director Glenn Elston is looking forward to the challenge of a smaller indoor setting.

Elston's new production of Hamlet will be performed in the historic surrounds of the Athenaeum Theatre Two. 

With over 16 years of Shakespeare experience under his belt, Hugh Sexton is relishing the chance to play Hamlet.
