Liverpool’s Lodestar Theatre Company are complimenting their recent successful production of ‘Hamlet’ with Tom Stoppard’s most famous work, ‘Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead’
Stoppard’s extraordinary play sees the events of Hamlet through the eyes of two minor characters but it soon becomes horribly clear that they are the unwilling protagonists of their own tragedy. They stumble haplessly, searching desperately for a glimmer of meaning in the terrifying events that overwhelm them.
In turns hilarious and tragic, this production of Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead has been designed as the perfect second half of this year’s double bill, performed with wit and passion in Liverpool’s most exciting new performance space – NOVAS contemporary Urban Centre.
Approximate length including 20 minute interval: 2 hours 20 minutes.
The show runs until 13 September and we seriously recommend it.
