Hamlet - An insight from David Nixon OBE


David Nixon, Artistic Director and Choreographer of Hamlet gives us an insight into his adaptation of Shakespeare's famous tragedy. Talking about his inspiration and ideas for the setting, as well as information about the music, choreography and characters, he explains how all the elements of the production come together to create each powerful performance. Accompanied by footage from rehearsals, David's insight is an interesting and unique chance to hear from the choreographer himself, before or after you see his production of Hamlet.

Press Quotes

“Move over Nutcracker, this is big boys ballet – brutal, testosterone-driven and utterly gripping... Northern Ballet Theatre’s Hamlet is everything a ballet usually is not, no tutus and an excellent plot. ...if you like a performance that knocks assumptions about ballet right off their pink-plimsoled toes, Northern Ballet Theatre is the company to watch.” Oakeshott, V.
