Description
FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY
The World's Leading Center for Shakespeare Studies

The Folger Shakespeare Library, home to the world's largest Shakespeare collection, brings Hamlet to life with this new full-length, full-cast dramatic recording of its definitive Folger Edition.

Hamlet--Shakespeare's most popular, and perhaps most puzzling play--follows the form of a "revenge tragedy," in which the hero, Hamlet, seeks vengeance against his father's murderer, his uncle Claudius, now the king of Denmark. Much of its fascination, however, lies in its uncertainties.

This new full-cast recording--based on the most respected edition of Shakespeare's classic--expertly produced by the Folger Theatre, is perfect for students, teachers, and the everyday listener.
