Who Goes There
2001
A deconstructed version of Shakespeare's HAMLET.
The production was initially developed for the woods, fields and interlocking studio spaces at The Hawth Theatre in 2000, before premiering at the Brighton Festival in 2001 and the Toneelschur Theatre in Haarlem, Holland. In 2002 the production was specially recreated for Battersea Arts Centre in London, taking over much of the building, including the basement, attic, backstage and main performance areas.
Each venue was transformed into the court of Elsinore, allowing the audience to promenade through corridors, galleries, basements and performance areas, witnessing and eavesdropping on the action around them.
Co-commissioned by the BRIGHTON 2001, THE GARDNER ARTS CENTRE, THE HAWTH and THE HAZLITT THEATRE and CORN EXCHANGE, with support from ARTS COUNCIL ENGLAND.
