Hamlet – Auditions

Our contemporary, minimalist, dynamic Hamlet brings together Shakespeare’s words with a live, original score.

And we’re looking for actors, dancers/performance artists and musicians who love to collaborate!

We welcome actors, performers (18+) and musicians of all backgrounds and levels of experience. What matters is your curiosity and love of collaboration not whether you’ve done Shakespeare before!

Auditions:
4th November- Actor Workshop
An open session to explore Shakespeare’s text and our creative approach.

11th November- Key Roles
Hamlet, Ophelia, Claudius, Gertrude, Polonius…there are no minor roles in Hamlet!

17th November- Performers & Musicians
Join the ensemble and creative team bringing the score to life

All auditions begin at 7.30pm at The Place Theatre, Bedford
