An electrifying modern language reimagining of Shakespeare's classic tale of vengeance. It is a tale of ghosts, of madness, of revenge—of old alliances giving way to new intrigues. Denmark is changing, shaking off its medieval past. War with Norway is on the horizon. And Hamlet—son of the old king, nephew of the new—becomes increasingly entangled in a web of deception—and murder. Struggling to find his place in this strange new order Hamlet tries to rekindle his relationship with Ophelia—the daughter of Elsinore's cunning spy master, a man with plots of his own. Hamlet turns for advice and support to the one person he can trust—Young Yorick, the slippery, unruly jester, whose father helped Hamlet through a difficult childhood. And all the while the armed forces of Fortinbras, prince of Norway, start to assemble, threatening to bring down Elsinore forever. Views: 51
