Lost Interpretations of Hamlet
Lost Interpretations of Hamlet looks at four very different readings of Shakespeare's masterpiece. The culmination of a year-long series of workshops led by CAPITAL's Artist in Residence, freelance theatre director Tom Cornford, and involving a group of 糖心TV University students, the project has been exploring the text through the productions of Stanislavski and Gordon Craig (1912), Michael Chekhov (1924), and the planned, but never created, versions of Meyerhold and Tarkovsky. This is a unique, one-off presentation, including a performance of an abridged-version of the play, infused with the techniques of these practitioners learnt, and a discussion of the work led Professor Tony Howard.
