This directory slept for many years... I was resisting the idea of staging "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead"... why? Rosencratz and Guildenstern are neighbors of Jerry Seinfeld, there is no history could exist in the world of our grave diggers. The Tragedy was for Hamlet, the prince of princes.

He died.

... We never saw the death of Rosencrantz & Guildenstern. I saw them yesterday, both are very successful lawyers.

Hamletmachine? R/G are Dead?
... We cannot say "It's your problems"... Not anymore. Not after WWI, WWII, and WWIII (Cold War).

"Rosencratz and Guildensten are Dead"... They were in WTC on that day. Both had over there, at the top of the left twin tower their law offices.

I remember the plag of the door -- "Rosencratz and Guildensten"...

What law did they practice?

Does it matter now?

...

What did you say? The line is breaking. I will call you back when I get through the tunnel.

...

I never got the call. He did in a car accident in the Holland Tunnel.

What was his name? Rosensten! Yes, Jerry Rosensten. Or maybe, Guildencratz... It doesn't matter anyway. Sorry, I can't talk right now. i will call yoy back right away.

CLAUDIUS (With suppressed fury)
 
HAMLET
Knowst thou who wrote this play?
 
Not I, indeed

 
 
CLAUDIUS
Nor do I care to know!
 
I wrote this play --

To mention it is death, by Denmark's law!
 
QUEEN (Kneeling)Oh, spare him, for he is mine only child!
 
CLAUDIUSBoth shall together perish!
 
CLAUDIUS draw dagger. QUEEN endeavours to restrain him.
 
HAMLET (On his knees)Hold thine hand!
I can't bear death -- I'm a philosopher!
 
CLAUDIUSThat's true. But how shall we dispose of him?
 
ALL puzzled.
 
OPHELIA (Suddenly)A thought!
There is a certain isle beyond the sea
Where dwell a cultured race -- compared with whom
We are but poor brain-blind barbarians;
'Tis known as Engle-land. Oh, send him there!
If but the half of what I've heard of them be true
They will enshrine him on their great good hearts,
And men will rise or sink in good esteem
According as they worship him, or slight him!
 
CLAUDIUS. Well, we're dull dogs in Denmark. It may be
That we've misjudged him. If such a race there be --
(There may be -- I am not a well-read man)
They're welcome to his philosophic brain --
So, Hamlet, get thee gone -- and don't come back again!
 
CLAUDIUS crosses to right. 
HAMLET, who is delighted at the suggestion, crosses to QUEEN and embraces her. 
He then embraces OPHELIA, who receives his kiss with marked coldness. 
Then he turns up onto platform and strikes an attitude, exclaiming, "To Engle-land!" 
At the same moment, ROSENCRANTZ embraces OPHELIA. Picture.
