A new exhibition is taking visitors behind the scenes of one of 2026’s hottest Oscar favourites.
Hamnet, Chloé Zhao’s adaptation of Maggie O'Farrell’s bestselling novel, stars Paul Mescal as William Shakespeare and Jessie Buckley as Agnes Shakespeare, his wife.
The Hamnet exhibition is called ‘Even as a Shadow, Even as a Dream’ and runs at 6 Fitzroy Square from December 8-22.
Curated by Simindokht Dehghani, the exhibition will capture the film’s locations, from the forests of Stratford-Upon-Avon to the stage of the Globe Theatre, plus artwork and writings from Zhao and actor Jessie Buckley.
Visitors can expect an immersive deep-dive in the film’s Tudor world, with props and set pieces on display, as well as photography, sketches, drawings and writings. Trust us, the detail behind Zhao’s world-building is staggering.
Tickets are free and available to book via Eventbrite site – although there’s availability for walk-ins too.
The exhibition is open from 10am-9pm between Tuesday and Saturday each week.
Hamnet is out in UK cinemas on January 8. Read our five-star review here.
