Second Age Theatre Company’s second play to complete their combined Autumn/Winter 2009/2010 season, is a staging of perhaps what is Shakespeare’s greatest play, Hamlet. Directed by Alan Stanford this production will premiere at Wexford Opera House, before touring to the Town Hall Theatre, Galway, the Helix Theatre, Dublin and the Everyman Palace Theatre, Cork. Hamlet is perhaps the most influential, most powerful and most intriguing of all tragedies in the English Language. It’s dramatic structure, proved groundbreaking at the time of writing, as the drama focused on character rather than action. It is this depth of characterisation that allows Hamlet to be analysed, interpreted and reinvented in seemingly infinite ways. The internal, individual conflict of Hamlet, is truly timeless and reflects the struggle of the human psyche regardless of time or situation.
