Let Be, Hamlet

“Why Hamlet? And why did you choose this soliloquy?” Midnight in Seoul. A desperate aspiring actor begins her Zoom audition. She's waiting for a callback that may or may not ‘be’. Trapped in limbo, as the moon waxes and wanes. Frustrated by her own weakness, her struggle slowly collides with Hamlet's most famous soliloquy. Can she break free from her cell and finally take a breath, and act? Performed by a historic South Korean women's theatre troupe, Let Be, Hamlet brings your screen-cell to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe: a legendary English text, reborn through a story from the other side of the world.
