The Hamlet Machine chair was originally designed as a prop for the play and published by Gérard Mialet in a limited 1987 edition.

ACCESS THE DROP

Since then, it has become a timeless reference. Only 12 pieces will be released in this drop from the original edition. With Robert Wilson, creation often begins in the silence of a sketch. This one carries the first breath of an idea—simple, precise, and powerful.

MEET BOB

Hear the story

"When I wrote Hamletmachine, after translating Shakespeare’s Hamlet for a theater in East Berlin, it turned out to be my most American play, quoting T.S. Eliot, Andy Warhol, Coca Cola, Ezra Pound and Susan Atkins. It may be read as a pamphlet against the illusion that one can stay innocent in our world. I am glad that Robert Wilson does my play, his theatre being a world of its own.” Heiner Müller
