Play Reading Workshop "Hamlet" - 2nd October 2012

Last night we had our second session of reading through Hamlet which went down well. Most of us had a read through and it only mildly struggled with some on the words, though this was explained expertly by Michael.

It was well received during our first session and equally so during our second, with a few of us reading some of Hamlet

's big soliloquies.

One of the longest plays (ever!) at a running time of four hours (!) plus Hamlet is a tale of murder and revenge. Hamlet discovers his father (who visits him as a ghost) was murdered by uncle who has consequently married his mother and has been made king. Hamlet decides what to do next and uncover the truth.

We all wait with baited breath what will happen next. The play's the thing!
