The Festival Players are touring Hamlet - Next stop: The Bread & Roses Theatre!

Lead actor Benjamin Way tells us about The Festival Players' tour of Hamlet so far.

PicturePerforming Hamlet in Belgium
The Festival Players’ tour of Hamlet, like the play itself, has been immense. It seems like a lifetime ago we had our opening night in a little village hall in Dormston, Worcester. Since that evening in May we’ve taken Hamlet to eight countries and performed to thousands - from Welsh Roman amphitheatres to medieval castles in Belgium and Holland, from the 1665 Baroniet Rosendal in Norway to subtropical gardens on the Isles of Scilly. We’ve already performed around 80 shows and have had such moving responses from so many audience members - both those who’ve seen countless Hamlets and children who’d never previously seen a single Shakespeare.

It is then, with much excitement that we come to the Bread & Roses in September. This play, although so grand in its scale, connects to something profound in an intimate setting. I look forward to sharing its unparalleled resonance and power with you, in our fast-paced, thrilling production.
 
- Benjamin Way, Hamlet
