Hamlet
The Bell Shakespeare vision is to create theatre that allows audiences of all walks of life to see
themselves reflected and transformed through the prism of great writing.
To prove that Shakespeare and the great works are not an end in themselves but
a means by which we can explore our most heartfelt concerns and our collective
aspirations. To acknowledge our historical background and embrace our cultural
future: to find the point at which our past and future intersect and to hold the
gaze of this defining moment. To value the transcendent beauty and complexity of
Shakespeares ideas, language and imagery: to identify the poetry of our times.
To use Shakespeare as Australians as a vehicle for self-scrutiny and recognition:
to make work that is of us, for us and about us. To create work that challenges
received artistic conventions and tests the elasticity of our practice. To embody the
strongest social values in everything we do.
