Spill Media were commissioned by Neath Port Talbot Council Arts and the Arts Council of Wales to work with Dewis Housing – an organisation who offer supported accomodation, information and advice for young people in the Neath Port Talbot County. As part of the project, 5 young people interviewed Michael when he visited the Dewis office and used the skills they had learned from the Spill team to film as Michael visited the homes of the young people.
We’ve added a few pictures from yesterday’s Opening Night party of Hamlet. And even some more actual production shots as well.

We will continue updating this post with links to Hamlet reviews…
All this puts the focus on Michael Sheen, who is fascinating to watch. He is intelligent, inventive and full of insights; the dismissive lines over Polonius’s corpse are here imbued with the profound regret of a man who is aware he has severed ties with the analyst on whom he depended. Sheen also delivers the “What a piece of work is man” passage with a beautiful consciousness of human potential.
