      ''The Mona Lisa of literature'' T. S. Eliot

      In Shakespeare''s verbally dazzling and eternally enigmatic exploration of conscience, madness and the nature of humanity, a young prince meets his father''s ghost in the middle of the night, who accuses his own brother - now married to his widow - of murdering him. The prince devises a scheme to test the truth of the ghost''s accusation, feigning wild insanity while plotting revenge. But his actions soon begin to wreak havoc on innocent and guilty alike.
