THE TIGER LILLIES PERFORM HAMLET

 

The Tiger Lillies are back and like post-modern jesters, they tell Shakespeare's tale of the anguished prince Hamlet with their own macabre twist. Directed by Theatre Republique’s Artistic Director Martin Tulinius, The Tiger Lillies Perform Hamlet is an explosion of music and images - a two-hour blast of theatrical seduction, deception, death, dark humour and the utter futility of existence.

A sinful ’HAMLET’ that is innovative, imaginative and incredible. It’s an evening that will haunt you for all the right reasons.

— Copenhagen Post

From Denmark's acclaimed Republique Theatre, featuring stunning circus acts and video projections, as well as giant puppets and a new score from the band, The Tiger Lillies bring their punk cabaret to this tale of betrayal and murder, love and revenge.The Tiger Lillies Perform Hamlet opened in Denmark in 2011 and has been touring extensively in Europe, Asia, Australia and America, gaining great popular and critical acclaim.
