Ah but ghosts? Are they real or is he crazy? And if they are real, do they tell the truth? It takes him a while to conclude that he needs a way to verify what the ghost has said, hence the play within the play. "Aye the plays the thing whereupon I'll catch the conscience of a king." By the time he sets up the play and figures out the ghost is correct it's Act III, scene ii. From there its downhill to the sword fight.

I grew up in Stratford, Connecticut. Does that count?

Problematically, one cannot be sure where the ghost came from. He alleges he's in purgatory. (Which ain't still a part of official doctrine in Shakespeare's England. But one doesn't get out of purgatory by asking your son to kill your brother. I'm thinking that a lot of audience members may have sympathized with the ghost--he didn't get his last rites. The closet Catholics in the audience would empathize. I think Shakespeare was a Catholic, btw.

Hold it, I just checked my Fender Princeton amp, and it has an Oxford speaker!
Hamlet. Prince of Denmark. Coincidence or secret signature? I smell Edward De Vere's hand in this. Leo Fender was a ignorant radio repairman. Some say he couldn't even play guitar! There are no records he ever traveled to England. Only a university man could have the wit to create such a nice little combo amp.
