🎭 Hamlet Around the World: Peruvian talent on stage across the UK 🎭🇵🇪🇬🇧
It was a true pleasure for Ambassador Ignacio Higueras to meet and welcome
@teatrolaplaza during their time in the UK, where they shared their powerful and moving production of Hamlet with audiences across the country.
From their participation at the Edinburgh International Festival (
@edintfest), to performances at the Barbican Centre(
@BarbicanCentre), and their time in Brighton, their work resonated deeply, opening spaces for reflection, dialogue, and inclusion.
In the spirit of
#WorldDownSyndromeDay, recently marked on 21 March, we celebrate the transformative power of the arts to challenge perceptions and amplify voices.
Through their reinterpretation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, eight actors with Down syndrome turned “To be or not to be” into a powerful call against prejudice.
Their extraordinary journey, spanning more than 50 cities across five continents, is now captured in the documentary short
#HamletAroundtheWorld, a testament to courage, talent, and the universal language of theatre.
A moving reminder that when stories are shared with honesty, art transcends borders and brings us closer together. ✨
