Time Out says

A critical success at last year’s Edinburgh International Festival, pioneering Peruvian company Teatro La Plaza’s version of Hamlet is a wild mixture of Shakespeare’s 400-year-old masterpiece combined with personal anecdotes and reflections from the eight-strong company, who all have Down’s Syndrome. Director Chela De Ferrari mashals the spectacle, which profoundly unlikely to look like your common or garden Hamlet.
