About this listen
Shakespeare's most famous play is one of the greatest stories in the literature of the world.
Distressed by his father's death and his mother's over-hasty remarriage, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, is faced by a specter from beyond the grave bearing a grim message of murder and revenge. The young prince is driven to the edge of madness by his struggle to understand the situation he finds himself in and to do his duty. Many others, including Hamlet's beloved, the innocent Ophelia, are swept up in his tragedy.
Hamlet is played by Simon Russell Beale. Imogen Stubbs plays Ophelia, Jane Lapotaire is Gertrude, and Bob Peck is Claudius. Polonius is played by Norman Rodway.

Fantastic recording
I love this performance of Hamlet. Brilliant acting by the whole cast, and an excellent choice for anyone studying the play as you are much more aware of the language than when watching. Recommended.

thought provoking text
I'm more familiar with the Arden & Cambridge versions of the play...this version includes some new text which I think is absent elsewhere. very clear verse from all players.
