Eddie Izzard's solo production of HAMLET transfers to Riverside Studios

Eddie Izzard’s performance of Shakespeare’s Hamlet will play at London’s Riverside Studios for six weeks from 23 May, following runs in New York and Chicago.

Hamlet sold out its initial twice-extended run at New York’s Greenwich House Theater after which it moved to The Orpheum Theatre. It marks Eddie’s second solo theatrical production in New York, following last year’s sold-out run of Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations, which played to rave reviews at Greenwich House and in London’s West End.

Hamlet is adapted by Mark Izzard and directed by Selina Cadell, with set design by Tom Piper, lighting by Tyler Elich, costume styling by Tom Piper and Libby DaCosta, and movement direction by Didi Hopkins.

Tickets for all three productions are available here.
