NTL: Benedict Cumberbatch in HAMLET

Presented by Irvine Barclay Theatre at Irvine Barclay Theatre

Now seen by over 800,000 people worldwide, the original broadcast of Benedict Cumberbatch in HAMLET returns to Irvine Barclay Theatre to mark National Theatre Live’s (NTL) 10th birthday.

As a country arms itself for war, a family tears itself apart. Forced to avenge his father’s death but paralyzed by the task ahead, Hamlet rages against the impossibility of his predicament, threatening both his sanity and the security of the state.
