Hamlet

14th-20th July 2025
By William Shakespeare
Presented by The Pantaloons
Location The Roman Theatre
Tickets £15.00 – £47.00

“Though this be madness, yet there is method in’t!”

Join the critically-acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company as they put on a frantic disposition to tackle Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy in their own anarchic style.

When he discovers that his uncle has murdered his father, married his mother and traitorously taken the crown of Denmark there’s only one course of action for Hamlet: feign madness, frequently monologue and take swift revenge. But outrageous fortune has other plans for the poor Prince of Denmark…

With live music, audience interaction, brevity-boosting abridgements, comic turns and tragic twists there’s only one question: To be there, or to be square?

The Pantaloons return to the Roman Theatre for their 5th year, after delighting audiences with The Importance of Being Earnest and Robin Hood last summer.

Suitable for all ages.
