Hamlet in Saint Petersburg, Alexandrinsky Theater

The legendary work of William Shakespeare called “Hamlet” will be staged on the famous St. Petersburg stage of the Alexandrinsky Theater. Dramatic adaptation by Vadim Levanov. The director and author of the play is Valery Fokin.

"Hamlet" is a great play by the famous British playwright William Shakespeare. This is exactly the kind of work that the most prestigious theaters around the world strive to stage in order to show their wealth and the level of skill of the cast. The famous Alexandrinsky Theater was no exception.

This production of the world-famous work, like many others before it, had the ability to be updated and adapted to their cultural realities. It is worth noting that Hamlet, in the version directed by Valery Fokin, is considered one of the most radical productions of this work. All actions are transferred to our time and undergo great metamorphoses.

On the stage of Alexandrinsky you will see a completely different Hamlet, as well as the problems of the performance itself. Now the main emphasis will be shifted from the problems and thinning out of one person to demonstrating the other side of power and its worst vices. Hamlet in this performance is a very nervous, passive and apathetic hero. This is a man who, without his knowledge, was woven into the intrigues of the court, but who still finds the strength to try to overcome the system.
