The Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) will bring its stage adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s novel *Hamnet* to the UK on its first touring run, with dates beginning in September 2027. Coverage across outlets says the production is based on O’Farrell’s best-selling book, which has also been adapted for screen.
Several reports identify the author as Maggie O’Farrell and link the work to earlier adaptations, including an Oscar-winning film. One outlet also specifies key creative and production details, naming Lolita Chakrabarti as the stage adapter and noting that the RSC production has previously played London’s West End. Another outlet highlights the company’s plans to extend the tour to Scotland for the first time, while other outlets focus more generally on the start of the UK tour.
