NCPA drama Hamlet (Mandarin)

"To be or not to be, that is a question." For more than 400 years, Hamlet, the protagonist of William Shakespeare's namesake tragedy, has enthralled countless dramatists and scholars.

The play tells a tale about how Hamlet, the prince of Denmark, revenged his dead father, thus unfolding a real-life picture of England and Europe.

This interpretation of the world-famous tragedy will be staged by performers from the National Center for the Performing Arts.
