Overview

In a modern take on Shakespeare’s iconic tragedy, KSC’s Hamlet explores fear, madness, revenge and gender through a condensed, fast-paced production.

Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, mourns the death of his father, and is disgusted by the marriage of his newly widowed mother, Queen Gertrude, to his Uncle, King Hamlet's brother, Claudius, who now has the throne. In his attempts to avenge his father's death, Hamlet, and all who surround him, are dragged deeper and deeper into his madness.
