About This Show

The Public Theater’s mobile unit presents a new, world-class production of Shakespeare’s Hamlet to audiences and community venues across New York City. Olivier Award winner Chukwudi Iwuji plays the anguished prince of Denmark who is confronted at every turn with a poisonous power structure that’s robbed him of his father and forever darkened his understanding of the world. Inspired by The Mobile Unit’s unique approach to engaging diverse communities with the arts, Patricia McGregor directs this bold take on Shakespeare’s immortal tale about family, deceit, and the explosive consequences of unchecked corruption.
