Hamlet

  • Hedingham Castle Bayley Street Halstead, England, CO9 3DJ United Kingdom (map)

The Pantaloons present…

"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?

“If Shakespeare chose a modern company to perform his work then it would undoubtedly be The Pantaloons.” (North West End)

Enjoy a night of fabulous theatre in the magical grounds of Hedingham Castle. Please bring blankets and/or low-back seating.

A bar will be available on the evening. Picnics welcome.

Gates open: 6pm
Performance starts: 7pm
