Description

Something is rotten in the state of De- set falls down

You join us on the opening night of a new production of Hamlet, directed by renowned narcissist and convicted tax-dodger Tarquin Sage. However, there are several problems…

Hamlet’s lost his skull
Nobody knows their lines
The set is for a different play
Hamlet’s Ghost is still getting chips
Half the cast haven’t made it to the theatre
Horatio is playing twelve different parts at once
Polonius is having a panic attack in the paint cupboard

And much, much more!

From the team behind last year’s Bedlam Pantomime “Sherlock Panto and the Great Christmas Caper” comes a hilarious new comedy about Shakespeare gone farcically wrong!
