Michael Lesslie, born in 1983 and currently living in London, wrote and directed A Th~le Bill of Shame for Hip Street Productions which had an acclaimed run at the 2003 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. In 2005 his adaptation of The Constant Prince had an international tour and transferred to London's Arcola Studio and the Oxford Playhouse. The same year his play Face Up, Face Down was awarded the Cameron Mackintosh Award for New Writing by Patrick Marber, under whose guidance the script has subsequently been developed. He has recently completed a feature film adaptation of Brian Moore's Booker Prize-nominated novel lies of Silence, and written a number of short films, including the BAFTA-nominated and Smirnoff Reel Talent Award-winning Heavy Metal Drummer (which he co-wrote) and Airlock, or How to Say Goodbye in Space, which premiered at the 2007 Edinburgh Film Festival

Set a decade before the action in Shakespeare's Hamlet, this thrilling new play is a terrific first introduction to Shakespeare's anti-hero. A company of teenage actors drawn from the National Youth Theatre and a technical team from local FE colleges have been paired with experienced NT practitioners to produce this specially-commissioned new play. | |||||

| This prelude to Shakespeare's most famous tragedy imagines Hamlet as a restless teenager frustrated by the limits of his role and furious at his father's warmongering ways. It provides a fascinating back-story to Hamlet and a sophisticated insight into the psyche of its hero, making it ideal for all ages | |||||
