Hamlet (Mandarin)

"To be or not to be, that is the question." For more than 400 years, Hamlet, arguably William Shakespeare's greatest tragedy, has enthralled countless dramatists and scholars. The play tells the tale of how Hamlet, prince of Denmark, avenged his dead father, in an allegory for English and European history.

Beijing Comedy Theater is putting on a Mandarin version of the play through this weekend.
