7.30pm at Progress Theatre, The Mount, Reading RG4 6SQ
Our Open Air production for 2026 will be William Shakespeare's Hamlet, probably the greatest play ever written. We are looking for an outstanding actor to play the title role; it's the ultimate acting challenge. Grief, madness, anger, intellect, reason, sarcasm, and whimsy are all on display. The actor needs to be able to do all this, in Shakespearean verse and with enough projection to reach the ears of all of our outdoor audience.
The role is open to any actor, but some physicality will be required. Our production aims to balance the tragedy with comedy, so a thoughtful rendition of the soliloquies will not be enough. The successful auditionee will also show good comic timing and quick repartee.
