Question
Which is the last play you saw?
Solution
My most recent theatre experience was a fantastic production of "Hamlet." The crowd was taken in by the catching performances as the drama played out with an amazing passion on stage. Watching Prince Hamlet's existential battle and the play's examination of betrayal, revenge, and madness was incredibly exciting. It's a memorable event which highlights Shakespeare's work's timeless genius.

Said more than these words ever will.
