One of Shakespeare’s most classic works, “Hamlet” has been performed through the centuries and with notable figures playing him such as Laurence Olivier, Daniel Day Lewis, Mel Gibson and Richard Burton. Now Chicago’s very own Daniel Kyri (Darren Ritter on Chicago Fire) tackles the role in a very different format. The production is now in a 6 part audio adaptation now available as a podcast  on all podcast platforms.

Adapted and directed by Jeremy McCarter (founder of Make-Believe Association) tackles the unique formatting of this audio production which immerses the listener into the mind of Hamlet, with the sense of the other characters surrounding you. A truly amazing experience….PLUS you can enjoy the BONUS chat with Jeremy and Daniel that does a deeper dive into the creation of this unique production.

Hamlet premiered as part of the Tribeca Festival in 2025 and was acknowledged to be a contribution to the world of audio drama that is bold and innovative. You can check it out and listen NOW by going to hamlet.fm
