Hamlet is 400 hundred years old. Despite the four hundred years of efforts to elucidate this lonely knight’s immortality, our questions about his cloudy fate have yet to be answered. We will probably never fully account for why Hamlet is eternal. But today, at too remote an age to him, yet in a world God knows who’s in the driver’s seat; our desire to return to the Danish Prince is stronger than ever. Robert Sturua
