Hamlet

By William Shakespeare

Directed by Robert Hastie

Olivier Award-winner Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) is Hamlet in this fearless, contemporary take on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy.

Trapped between duty and doubt, surrounded by power and privilege, young Prince Hamlet dares to ask the ultimate question – you know the one.

National Theatre Deputy Artistic Director, Robert Hastie (Standing at the Sky’s Edge, Operation Mincemeat) directs this sharp, stylish and darkly funny reimagining.

Hamlet

Gan William Shakespeare

Cyfarwyddwyd gan Robert Hastie

Yr enillydd Gwobr Olivier Hiran Abeysekera (Life of Pi) sy'n chwarae rhan Hamlet yn y fersiwn ddi-ofn, gyfoes hon o drasiedi enwog Shakespeare.

Wedi'i ddal rhwng dyletswydd ac amheuaeth, wedi'i amgylchynu gan rym a braint, mae'r Tywysog ifanc Hamlet yn meiddio gofyn y cwestiwn eithaf – rydych chi'n gwybod yr un.

Mae Dirprwy Gyfarwyddwr Artistig Theatr Genedlaethol, Robert Hastie (Standing at the Sky’s Edge, Operation Mincemeat), yn cyfarwyddo'r ailddychymyg miniog, chwaethus a thywyll doniol hwn.

Woolf Works

The Royal Ballet

Virginia Woolf defied literary conventions to depict rich inner worlds – her heightened, startling and poignant reality.

Resident Choreographer Wayne McGregor leads a luminous artistic team to evoke Woolf’s signature stream of consciousness writing style in this immense work that rejects traditional narrative structures. Woolf Works is a collage of themes from Mrs Dalloway, Orlando, The Waves and Woolf’s other writings.

Created in 2015 for The Royal Ballet, this Olivier-award winning ballet triptych captures the heart of Woolf’s uniquely artistic spirit.

Heriodd Virginia Woolf gonfensiynau llenyddol i ddarlunio bydoedd mewnol cyfoethog - rhai dwys, syfrdanol a thyner.

Mae'r Coreograffydd Preswyl Wayne McGregor yn arwain tîm artistig disglair i ar gyfer y gwaith aruthrol hwn sy'n gwrthod strwythurau naratif traddodiadol. Mae Woolf Works yn gasgliad o themâu o Mrs Dalloway, Orlando, The Waves a gweithiau eraill Woolf.

Wedi'i greu yn 2015 ar gyfer y Royal Ballet, mae'r triptych bale hwn, sydd wedi ennill gwobr Olivier, yn dal calon ysbryd artistig unigryw Woolf.
