Hamlet 2014 China Tour by TNT Theatre Britain
TNT Theatre Britain, one of the world’s foremost touring companies, presents William Shakespeare’s most powerful tragedy Hamlet
Performed in English with Chinese subtitles
Hamlet is perhaps the most fascinating play ever written. It is also a complex and sometimes frustrating mix of different traditions, beliefs and source material. Prince Hamlet’s own problems are those of the audience.
What is the morally correct course of action? How should that moral end be achieved? What is the relationship between revenge and justice? There are three different original versions which vary in length. There are also at least two major sources that pull in different directions from Shakespeare’s own additions to the story. The famous “To be or not to be” speech is even omitted from the first published version (The Quarto).
As Laurence Olivier says in the introduction to the 1948 film, Hamlet is the tragedy of a man who could not make up his mind. TNT’s new production will challenge this traditional idea and try to demonstrate that the confusions in the play reflect the confusions in the mind of Hamlet himself. Shakespeare is neither a dramatic poet not a realist or Romantic. He is concerned with powerful dramatic effect. We do not see the prince as being a man flawed by indecision, but a man paralysed by a moral problem.
It is surely not a tragic weakness that Hamlet refuses to kill Claudius at his prayers if we go along with Shakespeare and accept that Claudius would be forgiven if he goes to the final Judgement saying his prayers. The act of prayer reminds Hamlet (and the audience) that murder is wrong, even in revenge. Hamlet’s madness is both an act and a way of confronting the “rotten” state of Denmark with the truth. The play is a wonderful detective story and Hamlet hopes that the truth he is searching for will answer his moral question.
His tragedy is not so much his own failure to act, but the essential human tragedy of death itself. Death is the ultimate truth and as Hamlet goes deeper he repeatedly confronts the death of those he loved or himself. Perhaps Hamlet succeeds on the stage (whilst being rather confused upon the page) because its central metaphor is the paradox of performance. It is the player’s performance that unmasks Claudius, it is Hamlet’s feigned madness that allows him to speak the truth and it is the play itself that holds a mirror up to our troubled human consciousness as it tries to make sense of morality and death.
After the success of Macbeth and A Midsummer Night’s Dream, director Paul Stebbings will continue the company’s exploration of Shakespeare’s major works in the spirit and style that reflects the playwright’s own time and theatrical resources.
