"Confronting the Ghost" in HAMLET: Act 1, Sc 1. Week 3 - Shakespeare | The Rehearsal Room

We continue with The HAMLET Project, where we explore one scene (or section) of Shakespeare's Hamlet - one month at a time. To our knowledge, this is the first long-form, open rehearsal of this play available online! So yes, something new with Shakespeare. 😁 🏁 In this session, highlights include: ➤ A detailed examination of the Ghost's appearance and its implications for the characters' perceptions of reality ➤ Insights into Horatio's skepticism and the tension it creates among the watchmen ➤ How the Ghost's presence symbolizes unresolved issues within Denmark and foreshadows the chaos to come *** These sessions are free for all to enjoy; your support helps us keep this space creative, accessible, and high-quality.
