An artistic summit inspired by Hamlet, between choreographer and principal dancer Guillaume Côté and theatre maker and director Robert Lepage. An exceptional evening!

By popular demand, Hamlet is back. A highlight of the spring 2025 season, the creation of Guillaume Côté and Robert Lepage returns to the stage to captivate audiences with its evocative force. Transcending words to reveal the character’s shadows and deep humanity, the creators took on the challenge of approaching this mythical work solely through dance—delivered by an ensemble of nine virtuoso performers, inventive set design, and John Gzowski’s musical score. Hamlet, Prince of Denmark transports us to a world of deceptive appearances, where ghosts and humans mingle. A striking immersion into Shakespeare’s tragedy—truly unmissable!
