Brett Dean’s Hamlet
One of the finest examples of contemporary opera, Brett Dean’s Hamlet was a highlight of the Glyndebourne season and is going on tour. Noted for its mischievous take on Shakespeare’s play, the production features a superb cast with tenor Allan Clayton as Hamlet, soprano Barbara Hannigan as Ophelia and mezzo Sarah Connolly as Gertrude.
