It’s time to change the game. The country that gave the world football has since delivered a painful pattern of loss. The England men’s team has the worst track record for penalties in the world, and new manager Gareth Southgate knows he needs to open his mind and face up to the years of hurt to take team and country back to the promised land.

The Hunt is a modern-day parable, a thriller. A quiet teacher faces a devastating accusation against the backdrop of a rural hunting community. Truth is no match for the forces unleashed.

The Hunt

St. Ann's Warehouse

Hamlet’s mother has married his uncle, and at a less than decent interval too. As he pulls at the threads of his not-so-happy new family, Hamlet unravels a web of deceit and immorality that leads to the ultimate crisis of conscience.

Fresh from its run in Stratford-upon-Avon, this gripping production of Shakespeare’s famous revenge drama visits Canterbury as part of a major national tour.

Ralph Davis (RSC’s Tamburlaine, Timon of Athens, Richard III and King John) will play the role of Hamlet.

The stellar creative team is led by multi-award-winning director Rupert Goold whose recent work includes Dear England (National Theatre) and King Charles III (Almeida). Rupert has directed multiple celebrated productions at the RSC and in 2026, he will take up the post of Artistic Director at London’s Old Vic in 2026.
