I come back to this play, again and again, and my raggedy copy of Hamlet looks like an old treasure map! I do this because this play is so rich and dense. Unedited the play runs for nearly five hours (view Shakespeare play lengths) and this dense and insightful play is a must-read for an actor. The play, remade and remodelled with every generation, and with over 160 film adaptations to boast, is a tragedy of epic proportions. It is widely considered William Shakespeare’s finest work, and it is the proverbial goal of any young actor to play the eponymous lead role. Hamlet is one of the great plays of all time.
