About NT: Hamlet

A fearless new production of Shakespeare's famous tragedy

Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera is Hamlet in this fearless, contemporary take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.

Trapped between duty and doubt, surrounded by power and privilege, young Prince Hamlet dares to ask the ultimate question - you know the one. National Theatre Deputy Artistic Director, Robert Hastie directs this sharp, stylish and darkly funny reimagining.

Please Note This is a cinema event, recorded live at the National Theatre

From 1 December 2025, a Transaction Fee will apply to all bookings made through WTM, including online, in person, and by telephone. 

This fee helps cover the increased operational costs associated with processing bookings and maintaining our customer-focused ticketing systems. As public funding for the arts continues to decline, Transaction Fees are becoming commonplace across the UK cultural sector, allowing us to protect our programming, invest in digital improvements, and support exceptional customer service. 

As part of their members' benefits, WTM Members and Patrons will not pay a Transaction Fee. This will automatically be applied when you log into your online account. In person, please show your digital membership card to a member of the Ticketing & Sales team if purchasing your tickets at one of our Ticket & Sales Offices.
