Ersan Mondtag directs Shakespeare's Hamlet in a version by Wilke Weermann at the Berliner Ensemble in Berlin, with Sebastian Zimmler in the title role.
Director and author focus on the self-destructive forces of a society whose world order rests on violence: Hamlet believes he must set the disjointed time right by avenging his dead father, and the staging asks what a past that returns undead does to its sons.
The cast includes Pierre Emö (Ophelia/Fortinbras), Pauline Knof (Gertrude) and Marc Oliver Schulze (Claudius). Mondtag, part of the German Pavilion at the 2024 Venice Biennale, also designed the set.
Recommended from age 16.
