Hamlet Comes to Watersmeet This October

A dark and atmospheric full-scale staging of Shakespeare’s Hamlet is set to come to Watersmeet on Tuesday 7 October 2025, delivering a powerful blend of ghostly intrigue, emotional depth, and thrilling action.

Set in the shadowy medieval court of Denmark, this timeless tale of love, revenge, and political ambition follows Prince Hamlet as he confronts the ghost of his murdered father. Thrust into a spiral of doubt, betrayal, and rage, Hamlet must navigate a perilous path between justice and madness.

“To be or not to be?” becomes more than a question – it becomes the heart of a kingdom in turmoil.

This is Hamlet as it was meant to be experienced: intimate, urgent, and unforgettable.
A traditional production that honours the original language and staging, it is particularly well-suited for students studying the text, offering a vivid and faithful interpretation that brings Shakespeare’s words to life on stage.
