To die—to sleep, No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to: ’tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish’d. To die, to sleep; To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there’s the rub: For in that sleep of death what dreams may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause — The Almeida Theatre exists to launch the next generation of British artists onto the world stage. We make argument for theatre as an essential force in an increasingly fragmented society. To find out more visit: Follow us at: Facebook - Twitter - Instagram -
