Summer Outdoor Theatre

“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?

Remember to bring something to sit on. There will be an outdoor bar selling cold drinks, ice cream and alcoholopen throughout the performance, you are welcome to bring you own picnic as well.The performance will go ahead even if it is raining so, please dress for the weather on the day.Please do not bring large beach style parasols as these will block people’s view of the performance.
