Plot: Prince Hamlet has come home from college to Elsinore to bury his father and attend his mother Gertrude’s wedding to his Uncle Claudius. Hamlet is visited by his dead father’s ghost and learns his father was murdered by his uncle and demands Hamlet seek revenge for his death. He goes about this by pretending to have gone crazy, breaks off his relationship with is girlfriend, Ophelia, and plots to kill Claudius.
Feeling threatened by Hamlets behavior, Claudius plots to have him killed by employing two of Hamlet’s schoolmates, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, as escorts to his execution in England. Outwitted, Hamlet returns to Elsinore to seek his revenge.
