–I N T R O D U C T I O N – About 500 years ago, Hamlet’s father, the king of Denmark, was murdered by his own brother, Claudius. Then Claudius quickly married Hamlet’s mother, Gertrude. As the play opens, Hamlet’s father’s ghost appears and tells his son who murdered him. He urges Hamlet to seek revenge. As the play unfolds, Hamlet tries to convince himself that he should murder Claudius. This is Shakespeare’s most famous play, known for the anguished character of Hamlet. –O F C A S T C H A R A C T E R S – HAMLET,PRINCE OF DENMARKSon of the dead King Hamlet, and nephew of the present King of Denmark CLAUDIUS,PRINCE OF DENMARKHamlet’s uncle GERTRUDEQueen of Denmark and Hamlet’s mother GHOSTThe ghost of Hamlet’s murdered father POLONIUSChief adviser to Claudius HORATIOA commoner and loyal friend of Hamlet LAERTESSon of Polonius and the brother of Ophelia OPHELIADaughter of Polonius and the sister of Laertes ROSENCRANTZandGUILDENSTERNFormer classmates of Hamlet VOLTIMANDandCORNELIUSDanish courtiers MARCELLUS,BERNARDO,andFRANCISCOGuards at the castle REYNALDOPolonius’s servant OSRICA Danish courtier GRAVEDIGGERS,LORDS,ATTENDANTS,ACTORS,andSERVANTS

ACT 1

| Scene 1|

(Francisco is at his post before the castle in Elsinore. Bernardoenters.) BERNARDO:The clock has struck 12. I’ll take over the watch now, Francisco. FRANCISCO:Thank you for relieving me. It is bitter cold, and I am sick at heart. BERNARDO:Has it been quiet tonight? FRANCISCO:Not a mouse stirring. BERNARDO:Well, good night. Tell my Partners on watch to hurry. FRANCISCO:I think I hear them now. (HoratioandMarcellusenter asFranciscoexits.) MARCELLUS:Hello, Bernardo! BERNARDO:Welcome, Horatio and Marcellus. MARCELLUS:Has it appeared again—thething? BERNARDO:I have seen nothing. MARCELLUS:Horatio says it is only our fantasy. He will not believe that we saw it twice! By standing watch with us tonight, he can See it for himself.

H A M L E T

HORATIO:It will not appear. BERNARDO:Sit down awhile, And let us once again tell you about What we have seen two nights in a row. Last night, about this same time, The clock was striking one— MARCELLUS:Quiet! It’s coming again! (TheGhostenters, dressed in armor.) BERNARDO:It looks just like the dead King! MARCELLUS:Speak to it, Horatio! HORATIO(to the Ghost):Who are you? Why do you wear the armor in which Our buried King did sometimes march? By heaven, I order you to speak! MARCELLUS:It seems to be offended. BERNARDO:See, it stalks away! HORATIO:Stay! Speak! I order you, speak! (TheGhostexits.) MARCELLUS:It will not answer. It is gone. BERNARDO:What do you think now, Horatio? You tremble and look pale. Isn’t this something more than fantasy? HORATIO:Before my God, I would never have believed it Unless I saw it with my own eyes. MARCELLUS:Isn’t it like the King?

A C T 1|S C E N E 1

HORATIO:As like as you are to yourself! That was the very armor he had on when He fought the ambitious King of Norway. And he frowned just like that once, When angry. It is strange. I have no idea what to think. But it seems like a bad sign. MARCELLUS:Tell me, if you know, Why this quiet and watchful ghost Has come here these past nights. And why does our country seem To be preparing for war? HORATIO:I’ll tell what I’ve heard. Our last King, whose image just appeared, Killed King Fortinbras of Norway. Along with his life, Fortinbras lost all the lands He had risked in the battle. If Fortinbras had won, our good King Would have had to give up his lands. That was their agreement, so it was only fair. Now, sir, young Fortinbras, his son, Rash, hot, and foolish, Has raised an army of lawless men To recover the land lost by his father. This must be why we are preparing for war, And the reason we must keep watch at night. BERNARDO:I think you must be right.

H A M L E T

HORATIO:Quiet! Look! Here it comes again! (TheGhostenters again.) Stay, illusion! If you have any use of voice, Speak to me. If I may help you in any way, Speak to me. If you know anything about Your country’s fate, which, By knowing in advance, we may avoid, Oh, speak! (A rooster crows. TheGhostexits.) BERNARDO:It was about to speak, When the rooster crowed. HORATIO:I have heard that spirits Must leave the earth during the day, And what we just saw proves that story! The sun is rising. Our watch is over. Let us report what we have seen tonight To young Hamlet. I think that This spirit, silent to us, will speak to him. MARCELLUS:Let’s do it. I know where he is. (Allexit.)
