Sinead Rushe's first draft pf a raw new production dramatises this famous uncertainty in a striking new way by dividing the central role across a fluid ensemble of three actors. Their voices jostle, argue and diverge: unity of purpose is fragile achievement. This approach to character also exposes the contested role of king or ruler as just a role, and shows how political power is itself a 'Play", a play of ruthless force and devious stagecraft.
