Space Hamlet is a theatre production taking place at The Cockpit in London on 22 October 2026. This adaptation of Shakespeare's tragedy is set in space and features Norse hammers and aliens. Tickets are priced at £15 for full price and £12 for concessions or previews.
It's Shakespeare. In space. With Norse hammers. And Muppet-like aliens running amok. The Bard's tragedy gets blasted into orbit, transformed into a cosmic Glam rock comedy featuring norse gods, gladiator pits, space misfits and a golden robot. Containing adult language, puppet violence and at least one song that Shakespeare definitely didn't write, it is the ultimate treat for fans of Operation Mincemeat, Avenue Q and Forbidden Planet. “Everyone still dies, but there are a lot more laughs along the way” – Cultivated UK
