With
Andrew Scott, Olivia Colman
In the face of mortality, Scottish actor Ian Charleson (Andrew Scott) takes on his greatest challenge and transforms it into his greatest triumph. Set in London 1989, this biographical drama tells the inspirational true story of Charleson’s acclaimed performance as Hamlet at the National Theatre while living with AIDS. Directed by Simon Stone (The Dig), Elsinore explores not only the enduring power of Charleson’s work, but also the profound impact of his courage, wit, and grace on those around him during the final months of his life. A moving tribute to the healing and transformative power of theater.
“There’s no artifice to Scott’s deeply felt performance…he makes it all feel as real and as raw as it can be.”
