You, Hamlet
A reimagined, Hamlet-less show where you get to play the title character.
A hybrid of role-play game and art installation that takes you down the macabre taste of our contemporaneity. Moving through different environments, you will interact with the others of Elsinore assuming the role of co-author. A rotten world, a kingdom of illnesses with a touch of dark humour. AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION DETAILS Audience will be asked to move around to different locations within the building. They may be asked to hold things, respond, or physically participate. SENSORY DESCRIPTION We will move around the East End United as a group, which will involve active physical participation. We will use natural light and the lighting fixtures in the building (no additional theatrical lights). There will be sound systems set up in each environment where music and audio recordings will be played. There are equal moments of spoken text and moments of movement. We can accommodate sighted and/ or blind/ vision impaired.
Audience Role
Audience will be asked to move around to different locations within the building. They may be asked to hold things, respond, or physically participate.

About DopoLavoro Teatrale (DLT)
Founded in 2006 in Florence, Italy by Artistic Director Daniele Bartolini, DopoLavoro Teatrale (DLT) is devoted to audience specific creations and multi-disciplinary contemporary performance. Presenting shows that roam anywhere - alleyways and hidden corners of Toronto, foggy canals in East London, independent theatres in West Berlin, ancient markets, and secret beaches in Mumbai, abandoned clocktowers in remote villages of Tuscany, deconsecrated churches in the old town of Florence and exceptional showcases such as La Biennale di Venezia. DLT is now based in Toronto.
