“This is an interesting and intimidating challenge!” Radiohead's Thom Yorke is reworking the band's 2003 album Hail To The Thief for a “feverish” new adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet

Hamlet Hail To The Thief.

Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke is reworking the band's 2003 album Hail To The Thief for a bold new stage adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet.

Together with award-winning directors Steven Hoggett and Christine Jones, the “feverish new live experience” will fuse “theatre, music and movement”, and will see
Elsinore reimagined as a surveillance state, where Hamlet and Ophelia have their eyes opened to lies and corruption.
