JONATHAN SLINGERS HAMLET IS WELL OVERDUE
Sunday Times
Hamlets father is dead. He suspects his uncle of murder but has no proof. He fears his mothers involvement but dare not confront her. If his suspicions are correct he has a duty to avenge his father, but if he strikes down an innocent man he risks eternal damnation. David Farr directs this most popular and powerful of Shakespeares plays following his production of King Lear in 2010 at Newcastle Theatre Royal, with Jonathan Slinger in the title role and a cast including Greg Hicks.
