In Shakespeare’s most enduring and influential play, the Danish prince Hamlet mourns his father’s death and his mother’s subsequent remarriage. When the ghost of Hamlet’s father appears and reveals that he was murdered, the prince feigns madness, contemplates life and death, and plots revenge on his uncle-turned-stepfather Claudius, who is now the king of Denmark. What follows is an epic and sweeping tragedy, as only the Bard can deliver.
