Two out-of-work actors attempt to stage a production of Hamlet entirely within the video game Grand Theft Auto - an ambitious quest that turns out to be both absurdly funny and unexpectedly moving.

January 2021. The UK is in another lockdown and all entertainment venues remain closed. For theatre actors Sam and Mark, the future looks bleak. As the pandemic drags on, they spend their days in the online digital world of Grand Theft Auto and when they stumble across a theatre, the idea to stage a full Shakespeare play quickly takes shape.

Filmed entirely within GTA, Grand Theft Hamlet charts their ridiculous, hilarious adventure, through casting, rehearsals and performance, as they battle violent griefers and discover surprising truths about life, friendship and the enduring power of Shakespeare.
