HAMLET is one of several works Anna has designed for Bell Shakespeare.
Shakespeare provides a complex platform through which to communicate with an audience. Fascinating because the discourse is not just with the immediate production but (in the English Speaking West) to the versions of the plays the audience may have seen before and the memories carried. Each iteration is of itself but also reflecting back and forward through time.
Produced and presented by Bell Shakespeare at The Sydney Opera House, Canberra Theatre Centre and Arts Centre Melbourne. 2020 & 2022.
