After his father's death in strange circumstances, Hamlet sinks into doubt and perhaps also into madness. When reason falters, how can one distinguish truth from lies, how can one tell the loyal from the traitors?
Crafted by the creative minds of director Robert Lepage & choreographer Guillaume Côté, this extraordinary rendition relies solely on movement, music, and innovative set design to unfold the timeless story of Hamlet in a way never seen before.
