Synopsis
Three years after “Julius Caesar,” director Shintaro Mori and actress Yoko Yoshida reunite for a production of Shakespeare’s “Hamlet Q1,” the original version, with a new translation by Kazuko Matsuo. This condensed version, about half the length of the F1 version, focuses on a more streamlined narrative. Mori, praised for his 2021 “Julius Caesar,” directs this tale of justice and revenge within the Danish royal family. Yoshida, who won the 56th Kinokuniya Theatre Award for her role in “Julius Caesar,” portrays Hamlet with depth. The cast includes Ito Mari, Makishima Teru, Otsuru Saku, Hirooka Yuriko, and Yoshida Eiji, offering a fresh take on “Hamlet Q1.”
