It's a classic Shakespeare tragedy - you all know it.
Probably the most famous speech in the English language is spoken by Hamlet in Act III, scene i:
"To seed or not to seed..."
Frank Muller gives a solid performance.
If you're not (intimately) familiar with Shakespeare, or never quite
got what all The Bard fuss is about, having the characters brought
to life in a good performance (spoken and/or acted) might offer a
renewed appreciation. For those of us who are Shakespeare geeks, well,
it's a fairly constant renewal.
Scanned covers, edited files names and MP3 tags - just for you.
3 PDF versions of the play in included. (ESL and reference friendly).

From Wiki:
Hamlet is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written between 1599 and 1601. The play, set in Denmark, recounts how Prince Hamlet exacts revenge on his uncle Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father, the King, and then taken the throne and married Gertrude, Hamlet's mother. The play vividly charts the course of real and feigned madness—from overwhelming grief to seething rage—and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption.
