Hamlet

We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
- William Shakespeare

If you're struggling with Shakespeare, SmartPass is a really worthwhile way to spend fifteen pounds.

One of the things that puts a lot of people off Shakespeare is his wonderful but difficult to understand use of the English language. In this comprehensive and useful narrated study guide the student can grasp not only the complexities of the language and its use but also the events and themes too. This actors don't make the play too complex and they also don't dumb it down too much either.

SmartPass provides clear and incisive explanations, critical analysis and commentaries of each scene. Any tricky meanings, references and words are discussed too. To get the most of out any Shakespeare play you can't go wrong with SmartPass. You'll end up with a much more thorough understanding of where the Bard was coming from.

I listened to this in conjunction with Chop Bard podcast. Between this and SmartPass you've got hours and hours of enjoyable, in depth explanations and discussions.
