Should you believe your eyes and ears when the ghost of your father accuses your uncle of murdering him? 
Can you trust your loved ones? Your friends? Your own mind? 

Considered one of the most powerful and influential plays ever written, Shakespeare's Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark portrays a young man struggling with morality, mortality and murder after his world is violently overturned. Now, he must navigate the ever-shifting landscape of lies and secrets built by the people he once trusted most. 

Unable to determine the truth and grappling with the pressures of expectation, the pain of loss, and the complexity of his own desires, Hamlet is pushed to the brink of madness. After all, what if "there is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so"?
