Hamlet at Elsinore

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The Shakespeare Connection Some of the details in Hamlet about Kronborg Castle and life in the Danish court might imply that Shakespeare had personal knowledge of both. Opinion is divided as to whether or not he ever visited Denmark. The castle, built 400 years ago, was host last summer to the Oxford Playhouse Company's production of Hamlet.
