In the stage version of Hamlet it is all-important to watch the slow development of suspicion turning into certainty, but the microphone demands a swifter movement and, to this end, the play has had to be adapted. Nothing of the main plot has, however, been sacrificed in this presentation.
Scene I. 'Oh, my prophetic soul! My Uncle!'
Scene II. 'The play's the thing.'
Scene III. 'Soft you now! The fair Ophelia.'
Scene IV. A king of shreds and patches'.
Scene V. 'Oh, he is mad!'
Scene VI. 'The rest is silence.'
