Winner of the Kenneth Branagh New Drama Writing Award.

Should I Stay Or Should I Ghost? King Hamlet and his jester Yorick wonder where they are. And why? Heaven’s up there, Hell’s down there. Denmark, with its famous prince, is through that exit. Celebrated as a mix of Tom Stoppard, Monty Python, and Beckett, David Visick’s take on Hamlet delights even those who have never seen the tragedy. Those who have will never see Hamlet in the same way again. Three shows only!

Performed by Christopher Gibbs and Mark Liebert, the team behind Edinburgh and London fringe hit Wiesenthal, which also appears at this Adelaide Fringe.

★★★★★ “Brilliant! Funny, insightful, and really exciting” (Get Your Coats On)

“A fine tribute to the works of Shakespeare and theatre as a whole” (British Theatre Guide)
