Hamnet
When the plague steals 11-year-old Hamnet from his loving parents, Agnes and William Shakespeare, they must each confront their loss alone. And yet, out of the greatest suffering, something of extraordinary wonder is born. Experience the U.S. premiere of the Royal Shakespeare Company’s 'elegant and beguiling' stage adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s best-selling novel, adapted by award-winning playwright Lolita Chakrabarti and directed by Erica Whyman. The performance runs approximately two hours and 30 minutes, with one intermission, and contains occasional mature language, brief depictions of physical violence and consensual sexual activity, and the death of a child due to illness.
