Hamlet

Northland Youth Theatre returns for their much-anticipated annual performance of Shakespeare - this year alighting the Hatea loop with the Tragedy of 'Hamlet', Prince of Denmark.

'Hamlet' is the tale of a young prince, and his descent into madness as he tries to uncover his father’s murder. In his efforts to expose his stepfather, the newly crowned King of Denmark, he becomes responsible for the death of all that surrounds him.

Each year, the traditional Shakespeare scripts are stripped down to reveal the essential storyline, making it an easy, fun watch for families. Audiences are encouraged to bring a picnic dinner and a blanket to enjoy the evening in the sculpture park on the Hatea Loop.

Location: Sculpture park on Hatea Loop, next to Riverbank Theatre.
