Welcome to Hamlet Part 2: The Gertrude Strikes Back! In our very first Part 2 (of 2), Gabriel Urbina returns and we conclude the closet scene between Hamlet and Gertrude. We dig into questions about the role of the Ghost (in this scene and beyond), tackle complicated metaphors and famous (but forgotten) fables. Featuring: differing versions of the text, reechy kisses (ew), Ghost Rules, lugging guts, and the Famous Ape.
