Hamlet Hail To The Thief
Shakespeare’s great tragedy and Radiohead’s seminal album collide in the world premiere of Hamlet Hail to the Thief, a feverish new live experience, fusing theatre, music and movement. Thom Yorke, Christine Jones and Steven Hoggett collaborate on a dynamic new version of Hamlet where Shakespeare’s words are illuminated by Radiohead’s album Hail to the Thief re-worked by Yorke and performed live by a cast of musicians and actors.
Hamlet Hail to the Thief opens at London’s Barbican Theatre on Oct. 31, running through Jan. 23, 2027.
