Hamlet – self indulgent, emotional, moody and sullen. If Hamlet were alive today, he would be the front man in a rock band. It is the edgy, angsty and creative side of Hamlet that we explore in our adaptation. Hamlet is a classic play with thoroughly modern content. Brimming with potent imagery and contrasting moments of tragedy and comedy, this tale never ceases to astound and disturb. Hamlet will catapult students through a twisted world top full of revenge, greed, loathing, love, triumph and tragedy, all set to a rockin’ soundtrack. |
"Combined great techniques to keep the students engaged and interested. Students found the characters ‘real’ and the plot easy to follow.”
