Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest, Toni Erdmann) won Theater Heute magazine’s actress of the year award in 2020 for her turn as Hamlet in this staging by Dutch director Johan Simons.

“As the melancholy Dane, Hüller … digs deep into the character’s grief and isolation in this spare yet faithful production, which originated at the Schauspielhaus Bochum.” —AJ Goldman, The New York Times

“The Bochum Hamlet was shown in a television version made by the German broadcaster 3sat, directed for television by Catharina Kleber. Theatre makers habitually look down on streams because there the camera gets to decide where one looks. The same people have no qualms about superimposing close-ups of their actors on an on-stage screen, which is something of a contradiction. In this version the camera picked up entrances, exits and the composer/musician Mieko Suzuki at the moments of soundscape change just as the eye would have.” —Matti Linnavuori, Critical Stages
