William Shakespeare: Hamlet

When a mysterious ghost appears after the death of the King of Denmark, Prince Hamlet feels a sense of duty and a strong urge to avenge his father. Torn between his duty to avenge his father's death and his own conscience, which tells him that revenge is wrong, Hamlet makes a series of fatal decisions that culminate in a final, terrible reckoning at Elsinore.

In the live, intimate format of a radio play, Shakespeare's universally-known tragedy transports the listeners into a dark universe of revenge, madness and family tragedy. The abridged radio adaptation stays loyal to the Hamlet-esque spirit of the original play, while investing, through the specifics of the medium, many of the events and characters with new sonic and semantic dimensions.

The live radio play places Hamlet in a contemporary context and invites a reflection: Is to be, or not to be, the question when a voice is all we have?
