About Lawrence Olivier As Hamlet
It's not a sprawling museum, more a focused tribute that works best if you already know your Shakespeare or care about theatrical history. The costume itself is surprisingly simple - black, worn, the fabric carrying the weight of Olivier's interpretation. There's usually supporting material about the production and Olivier's approach to the role, though the exhibition isn't permanent, so check ahead before the journey.
Allow perhaps 45 minutes to an hour, longer if you're genuinely interested in mid-century Shakespeare performance. It's free admission when open, which is the saving grace. History enthusiasts and theatre types will get far more from this than casual visitors - if you're just passing through London, you might find it feels slight. For families with restless kids, skip it entirely.
The South Bank location makes it easy to combine with other attractions, and Lovat Parks sits just 1.7 miles away if you're basing yourself at a holiday park in the area. The walk along the river beforehand is worth it. Ring ahead to confirm opening before you head down - it's not always staffed.
