Black Ram Theatre Company

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead

by Tom Stoppard
directed by Ross McGregor
produced by Louis Selwyn

Wednesday 5th May, 7.30pm

Set in the ruined gothic wreckage of a proscenium theatre, in a world of constant duality, mirror images and echoes, Stoppard’s famed existential comedy explores the comic flip side of Shakespeare’s tragic masterpiece through the eyes of his most enigmatic duo, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

Complete with musicians, acrobats and circus performers, blazing fire and trailing glitter, we see these vaudeville anti-heroes as they trip, traipse and fall through the dark world of Hamlet in search of hope and purpose, leaving greasepaint and sparkle in each dying footprint.

A welcome return by Black Ram with a production spanning the spectrum of theatrical genres and visual techniques, utilising dance, puppetry, live music, interactive media projections and beautiful set pieces.

Tickets: £12.00 (£10.00 concessions)
