Easter Rep Season Begins!

Image-3.ashxThe Firestation and London Contemporary Theatre present three re-imagnings of classic texts in our first Easter Rep Season with three plays over three weeks! Launching the season is Hamlet: The Dark Hour, an inventive adaptation of Shakespeare’s prolific tragedy.

Following the success of Macbeth; In Pitch Black, this Easter, London Contemporary Theatre and The Firestation present an immersive repertory season of three classic British texts, specifically crafted for the contemporary audience. Each text has been carefully chosen and have we got a treat in store!

The Easter Rep Season will open with an inventive re-imagining of Hamlet; The Dark Hour – the iconic and perhaps greatest of Shakespeare’s plays will be an abridged version taking place in the dingy darkness of a dungeon, allowing your senses to be heightened and the power of the piece to be truly felt.

Join us in the dungeon setting where the play will be performed mainly in a dingy darkness, heightening your senses whilst leading you through the tragedy of Hamlet. His father’s death was suspicious and his mother has hastily married his uncle, the man he suspects of murdering his father. Trapped in the claustrophobic court of Elsinore he must discover the truth and decide if he has a right to avenge his father…

This incredibly exciting project is The Firestation and London Contemporary Theatre’s first partnership venture, and The Firestation’s first co-producing credit. We are delighted to be working with such an exciting company this year.
