The Tragedy of Hamlet Prince of Denmark
A gritty Australian version of Shakespeare’s timeless tragedy.
★★★★★
" An interpretation so radical and emotionally searing that it redefines the role"
Alison Croggon, The Australian

About the Movie
Hiding in the alleyways, from the darkness of the urban world, escapes a strange and exciting adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic tale, Hamlet.
The Tragedy of Hamlet Prince of Denmark was filmed in 2007 and premiered at the Melbourne International Film Festival to sell-out audinces.
Entirely captured in 38 hours of filming, completely shot at night and using theatre actors specialized in Shakespearian performance, THE TRAGEDY OF HAMLET, PRINCE OF DENMARK comes to screen in a new modern version of Shakespear's classic masterpiece.
