15-Minute Hamlet
Hamlet
The play's the thing: this contribution to the Tom Stoppard season has all the famous lines, though not necessarily in the right order. Pure fun, yet proof that the essence of Shakespeare's play is irreducible.

Elsinore | S1E4
The traitor, Lord Anders, has been found in Sweden and Claudius is dispatched to bring him back to Denmark. But in doing so, Claudius discovers some devastating news about what his brother, King Hamlet, is planning. Set in an alternative Europe in the 1930s, Elsinore imagines the turbulent world of the Danish Court in events that take place some years before the story told in Shakespeare's Hamlet.
