Hamlet
Allan Clayton in the title role and John Relyea as the Ghost in Brett Deans HAMLET © Karen Almond / Met Opera
Australian composer Brett Dean’s Hamlet is a bold adaptation of Shakespeare’s timeless drama. Tenor Allan Clayton makes a sensational Met debut with his acclaimed portrayal. Distilling the action of the play to 12 scenes, Dean and librettist Matthew Jocelyn have created a taut, dramatically effective opera, presented in an electrifying staging by noted Australian director Neil Armfield. Maestro Nicholas Carter makes his company debut conducting a stellar ensemble cast that also stars soprano Brenda Rae as Ophelia, mezzo-soprano Sarah Connolly as Gertrude, baritone Rod Gilfry as Claudius, and bass-baritone John Relyea as the ghost of Hamlet’s father and the Gravedigger.
