The King of Denmark is dead and Prince Hamlet must take revenge, initiating a cascade of events that will destroy both family and state. Eddie will be portraying men, women, ghosts, scholars, tyrants, courtiers, lovers, fools and poets. She says:
“I have always gravitated towards playing complex and challenging characters and Hamlet is the ultimate. This is a production for everyone, a timeless drama with an accidental hero. Selina, Mark and I want audiences to see and hear an accessible, touching, scary and dramatic Hamlet.”
‘HAMLET’ marks Eddie’s second solo show following last year’s sold-out run of Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations, which played to rave reviews in New York and at The Garrick Theatre in London’s West End. This production of Shakespeare’s ‘HAMLET’ will see her take on 23 characters in a very unique performance of the iconic play.
London’s Telegraph called Hamlet “Absorbing and intimate. An impressive sweeping performance. ★★★★”
NBC-TV'S Today Show said “To be or not to be 23 different characters, that is the question. And Eddie Izzard’s Hamlet is the answer.”
Theatermania.com said Izzard “makes each verse crackle.”
New York Stage Review said, “Oh what a noble prince (plus everyone else) is Eddie Izzard.”
Best known as an actor, multi-lingual comedian, multi-marathon runner and trailblazing political candidate. Eddie Izzard’s career pushes boundaries and defies description with record-breaking comedy tours and critically acclaimed film, TV, and theatre performances.
