Direct from triple-extended solo runs in New York, Chicago and London, Eddie Izzard brings her acclaimed one-person performance of Hamlet to Canberra. Nominated for New York's Drama League Distinguished Performance Award and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Solo Performance, this production has captivated audiences around the world.
Akin to original performances of Hamlet, Izzard will perform on the blank canvas of a bare stage, letting Shakespeare's words and pure storytelling take the spotlight. Masterfully inhabiting the world of Hamlet, Izzard seamlessly shifts between the play's twenty-three characters with clarity and emotional depth.
Izzard is a multi-talented artist whose career spans film, theatre and activism. Now she brings her charisma and creativity to one of the world's most enduring tragedies. Bold, intimate and unforgettable—this is Hamlet as you've never seen it before.
