Hamlet was performed in French by members of Brook's Paris-based
centre for theatre art (CICT).
Eight actors managed to depict 15 characters from the play. The
costumes were designed by the famous Issey Miyake.
Visitors will be able to see the plays on Saturday and Sunday for the
last time.
Due to previous commitments, Brook did not arrive at Dubrovnik, but
is expected to in August.
