Hamlet gathers momentum

The Nigeria leg of the Hamlet Globe to Globe Tour continues to gather momentum by the day. The tour, which is scheduled to hold in every country in the world over two years, and which opened at Shakespeare’s Globe, London on April 23rd, 2014, has Nigeria billed as the 79th country it will berth at on  the 4th and 5th of next month with performances scheduled for MUSON Centre, Onikan and St. Saviour’s School, Ikoyi, both in Lagos.
According to Adeoye Omotayo of R&B PR, one of the many organizations supporting the staging of the Nigeria leg of the tour, Nigerians should expect a very thrilling staging of Hamlet because the lead character is Ladi Emeruwa, a Nigerian who is the first black man to play Hamlet and who is so excited to be playing it in his home country that he will definitely give more than his best on stage.
“Nigerians should come out and see Hamlet performed in a manner they’ll never forget,” he said. “Hamlet in itself is a classic evergreen tale, and I’m quite sure Nigerians who see it as performed by Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre will never forget the experience.”
