NT Live: Hamlet

Duration: tbc
Dates: Thu 22 - Sun 25 Jan 2026

Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) is Hamlet in this fearless, contemporary take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.

Trapped between duty and doubt, surrounded by power and privilege, young Prince Hamlet dares to ask the ultimate question – you know the one.

The National Theatre's Deputy Artistic Director Robert Hastie (Operation Mincemeat) directs this sharp, stylish and darkly funny reimagining.
