Event Description
This world premiere 90-minute adaptation of Shakespeare's greatest play balances the power structure in Hamlet's Denmark and in the contemporary rehearsal room while staying true to Shakespeare's story and retaining his famously beautiful language. If you think you know Hamlet, come hear it again in a whole new way.
At long last, an essential adaptation that elegantly resolves the gender imbalance in Shakespeare in the spirit of the text. Hamlet 50/50 is transformative; I can't recommend it highly enough.~Prof. Tiffany Stern, The Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham
Bold and brilliant, exhilarating and experimental, Hamlet 50/50 gives us a wholly new and thrilling approach to gender equity in Shakespeare productions, transforming both process and reception for actors and audiences alike. ~Prof. Peter Holland, University of Notre Dame; Chair, International Shakespeare Association.
