WARWICK ARTS CENTRE will be selling a limited number of extra tickets stage side for La tragédie d’Hamlet for each performance during its exclusive run in Coventry, giving theatre lovers and fans of Peter Brook’s work a unique opportunity to get ‘up close and personal’ with the actors.

These special tickets cost only £8, and are available immediately. Anyone who wishes to buy these tickets needs to contact the box office on 024 7652 4524.

These tickets are subject to availability and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. The seats will be situated on benches on the front row and on individual cushions.

Celebrated theatre director – and former Artistic Director at the RSC - Peter Brook has agreed to present his French adaptation of Hamlet with an English translation at WARWICK ARTS CENTRE following his company’s outstanding appearance there with Le Costume two years ago.

The performances at WARWICK ARTS CENTRE, sponsored by Advantage West Midlands, will be the only opportunity to see La tragédie d’Hamlet in the UK this year. The five performances at the Coventry arts venue have already virtually sold out.
