CUMBERBATCH’S HAMLET : A South Bank Show Special (1 x60’ for Sky Arts)

It was the fast-selling production in London theatre history, starring the most in-demand actor of his generation. Benedict Cumberbatch was to play Hamlet. He would have to follow in the steps of Olivier, Burton, Day Lewis, Rylance – and match up with innovative contemporary interpretations by Maxine Peake, Rory Kinnear and Adrian Lester. In this South Bank Show Special, Cumberbatch describes the challenges of playing one of the most famous and demanding parts in English theatre and what contemporary resonance the play still has.
