Edward Hall

Although he has for the most part worked in the theatre, Hall has directed some radio and television programmes including Into Exile for BBC Radio 4 and episodes of Trial and Retribution and Marple for television. He directed the 2012 two-part TV miniseries Restless.

Hall took over as Artistic Director of the Hampstead Theatre in February 2010.

In 2002, Hall directed Rose Rage at the Haymarket Theatre, an adaptation of all three of Shakespeare's Henry VI plays. It was described by The Guardian as "an exhilaratingly surreal and bloody take on Shakespeare."

Hall began his professional career as a theatre director at the Watermill Theatre in the early 1990s. At the Watermill, Hall directed a number of Shakespeare plays, including Henry V and The Comedy of Errors. In 1996 he directed Donald Sinden, Patrick Ryecart and Nigel Davenport in a UK tour of N. J. Crisp's drama That Good Night.
