The Royal Shakespeare Company returns to Norwich with a ‘must-see’ (Guardian) new production of Hamlet.
Hamlet’s mother has married his uncle, and at a less than decent interval since the death of his father. As he pulls at the threads of his not-so-happy new family, Hamlet unravels a web of deceit and immorality that leads to the ultimate crisis of conscience.
Fresh from its run in Stratford-upon-Avon, this ‘scintillating new staging’ (Financial Times) of Shakespeare’s famous revenge drama visits Norwich Theatre Royal as part of a major national tour.
Post Show Talk:
There will be a post-show Q&A after the 13 Mar 7:00pm performance, open to all ticket holders.
Access information:
Chilled/Relaxed performance 12 Mar 2026 – 2:00pm
The upcoming chilled performance will adopt a more relaxed atmosphere regarding noise and movement in the auditorium, while the performance itself will remain unchanged. This setup is especially welcoming for those who may feel more comfortable with the option to come and go during the show. We believe this performance will be enjoyable for everyone.
Post-show talk – BSL interpretation and captions – 13 Mar 2026 – 7:00pm
The post-show talk will feature both BSL interpretation and captions generated live as the discussion happens. Open to all ticket holders for Friday 13 Mar 7:00 pm performance. Post-show discussions usually last around 20-30 minutes.
