Talking to the Audience in Hamlet

20th July 2025
Presented by The Pantaloons
Location The Roman Theatre

Free Interactive workshop with the Cast and Director of Hamlet, for one afternoon only.

What changes when an actor playing Hamlet talks to and with the audience, rather than merely “thinking aloud”? What kinds of relationship can the character forge with the audience?  This workshop with the director and cast of The Pantaloons’ Hamlet allows you, the audience, to try your hand at directing the play – or to just sit back and watch the experiment!

Join the critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company as they return to the Roman Theatre for their 5th year, after delighting audiences with The Importance of Being Earnest and Robin Hood last summer. Why not come to this interactive workshop with the cast and director, then watch the show at 6pm? Book your Hamlet show tickets here.

This is a free ticketed event. Duration: 1 hour and 15 minutes. Show performance tickets must be bought separately.
