Hamlet, William Shakespeare’s masterpiece, directed by Themis Moumoulidis, will be welcomed by the International Festival of Patras at 9.30 on Monday 15 July at the Municipal Summer Theater on Ritsou Street.
Themis Moumoulidis, through the performance, attempts a modern stage reading of the play with a group of important actors, led by Anastasis Roilos in the role of Hamlet.
Shakespeare with Hamlet presents to the world theater a monumental work which, for centuries now, has created its own mythology. A dive into the essence of man and at the same time a requiem to his dark side. Through Hamlet, Shakespeare describes his time, which is also our time. A timeless and deeply political text.
Using the magnificent poetic translation of Giorgos Heimonas as a vehicle, the performance follows the “collapse” of a world, incapable of obeying rules and ethics. A dark, ruthless world, where friendship and blood relations mean nothing. A “ready-made” world of expediency and selfishness….
