Denmark HillDenmark Hill
Synopsis:
-
Notes:
By Alan Bennett. Adapted from the author's screenplay by Honor Borwick. The premiere reading of Alan Bennetts lost early unproduced play for television, Denmark Hill is a deliciously acerbic black comedy set in South East London. 15 year old Harriet is wrestling with an essay on Hamlet while her alcoholic father, Frank, is dying upstairs. In the aftermath of his death, Harriets tale is drawn into a strangely familiar story: a suburban Hamlet. In different guises here come Claudius, Gertrude, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, Polonius and Ophelia. Even the travelling players take a part.
