Dendy Dames: Ophelia Preview Screening

Join us at Dendy Newtown on July 31 for our Dendy Dames preview screening of Ophelia, a rich and poetic twist on the Shakespearean tragedy of Hamlet. Drink on arrival and goody bag included. Choose between our traditional session or the Dendy Lounge experience with meal packages included. Arrivals from 6:30pm for a 7:00pm screening.

As a rebellious and motherless child, Ophelia (Daisy Ridley) is taken into Elsinore Castle by Queen Gerturde (Naomi Watts) as one of her most trusted ladies-in-waiting. Soon enough, Ophelia captures the affections of the young Prince Hamlet (George MacKay). A passionate romance kindles between the two in secret as the kingdom is on the brink of war amidst its own political intrigue and betrayal.

When Hamlet’s father is murdered and the prince’s wits begin to unravel into an insatiable quest for vengeance, Ophelia sharply navigates the rules of power in Denmark all while struggling to choose between her true love and her own life.
