Hamlet

In a dark, blood-soaked Renaissance court, ringed by a curving black wall full of doors to listen at, Claudius holds power through his bodyguards and Polonius keeps a web of spies. Prince Hamlet, mourning the father whose widow has already married Claudius, is confronted by the chalk-white ghost of the old king, trapped in torment and demanding revenge. What follows is a dangerous game of feigned madness, watchful friends and a play staged to expose a murderer.
