reasons why hamlet is the best play ever

writing this instead of my final paper

oh yeahhamlet

sadness and angst and existential despair

It’s a tragedy

Shakespeare wrote it

warning: spoilers

david warner in the 60’s

Larry stahp

Ian mckellen is the most diva

Jonathan pryce

david tennant gets his own slide

mm yeah baby I’ll play upon you like a pipe

also sometimes chicks play him which is the best

sarah bernhardt is the most hbic of all time

sarah siddons

anna dickinson

alice marriottlook at how she’sdominating this slide

whoa ophelia

she’s really nice

but then the patriarchy turns her into a horny suicidal nut job

she gives everybody imaginary flowers and then she drowns herselfwhat

what

so many soliloquies

a soliloquy is a monologue said to yourself

hamlet talks to himself a lot

not just to be or not to be that’s not even the best one

he is so full of self hatred that he wants to literally melt into slime

horatio and hamlet“I will wear him. In my heart's core, ay, in my heart of hearts, As I do thee.”

that’s a quote

he dies in his arms

it’s really sad
