Hamlet: Family Storytelling
Experience the intriguing story of Hamlet in an exhilarating live Family Storytelling performance in the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse. Designed as the perfect introduction to Shakespeare’s famous tale of the Prince of Denmark.
Hamlet’s dad has died, and he feels like the sun is forever behind the clouds. No one else seems to care. They’re all excited about the new King, his uncle, who his mum has just married!
But who is the ghost stalking the castle battlements? And what’s Hamlet going to do about it all?
‘To be, or not to be, that is the question.’
— Act III, scene 1
Storytelling performances are led by one of the Globe’s highly experienced practitioners who include actors, teachers and directors.
Recommended for ages 5–12 and their families. All under 18s must be accompanied by a ticket-holding adult throughout.
