The fight of his life. The triumph of a lifetime.

The deeply emotional and inspirational true story of Ian Charleson (portrayed by Andrew Scott), a gifted actor whose greatest challenge becomes his greatest triumph. Facing his own mortality with unflinching honesty, wit, and grace, Charleson becomes a source of healing and inspiration for those around him while preparing to deliver the performance of his life in Hamlet at the National Theatre in London.

Also starring Oscar-winner Olivia Colman as Dr. Margaret Johnson, Charleson's doctor, Elsinore captures the transformative power of theatre like never before. "Scott has displayed a depth of vulnerability on screen before, but not like this. Every time you think he can’t top himself on screen—and to be clear, it’s not a competition—he pulls forth something from inside his soul that is even more transcendent. It truly is the role of a lifetime."—Gregory Ellwood, The Playlist.
