Some connected Scenes from "Hamlet, Prince of Denmark"
A Tragedy by William Shakespeare

The action of all these scenes takes place in or around the Royal Castle at Elsinore. Shakespeare's great drama is so well known to most of us that it is only in the manner of its presentation that we can hope to find anything unfamiliar. Hamlet has become not so much a man among men as a role to be interpreted by a leading tragedian, a figure upon the stage. Tonight's production takes us far away from the tradition of the footlights; the quiet voices of the actors will unfold a grim story much nearer reality than tragedy.
