Coming to a Cinema Near You

Another Internet search, another lucky strike.  The announcement that Benedict Cumberbatch would play Hamlet in a production at the Barbican Theatre in London was big news.  It became one of the most in-demand tickets ever, and shows sold out nearly immediately--100,000 tickets gone in minutes.

Don't worry, Hamlet fans!  If you didn't manage to get tickets or wouldn't have been able to travel to London for the show anyway, there's still hope.  The production is being broadcast on cinema screens around the world, courtesy of National Theatre Live.  The show is set for an October 15th debut, with the possibility of encore presentations based on demand.  Check the NT Live website to find a cinema near you.  Tickets may be on sale in your area.

October 15th.  It may be seven months away, but it's never to early to begin inquiries.
