A peak at the world of Hamlet
|
The amazing Nancy Perrin is tasked with creating the world of Hamlet. In the words of the show's director, Paolo Santalucia:
"Ultimately, this play is about truth...the production elements will act as metaphors for how we conceal and reveal ourselves--how the 'inward parts of our hearts, and the secrets of our souls' are kept close, and how they break free from us against our control. This production, and the focus of this version of the play, will be centred on the need to uncover truth, with each passing act getting closer and closer to the naked truth both in its visual and interpersonal representations."
Here is a peak at Nancy's early renderings:
