Hamlet

Poster for a fictive theatrical production of W. Shakespeare's Hamlet.

A deconstructed take on typography for a bold, punk-inspired version of the play.

The crown evokes a mohawk haircut, blending royalty with rebellion. The red scribbles add an unsettling and chaotic feeling, aligning well with the play's psychological depth and intensity. And they also draw the viewer’s attention to key areas of the visual.

The colour scheme, bold accent of red contrasting with beige tones, and distorted graphical elements create an atmosphere of tension and unease which fits well with the themes of the story.

Would you go see this twist on a classic tragedy?
