Hamlet Act 3 Remix

Our group's remix representation of the central theme of Hamlet was that Hamlet being an ordinary teen, struggles not only externally but internally with the depressing situation he is involved in. He is surrounded by negativity, darkness, and chaos constantly. Continuously battling the harsh judgments of himself by others and even his own self, he begins to feel as if he is "not there" or "not human." Stuck between the death of his royal father and the death of his arrogant, cocky, back-stabbing step "father"/uncle, Hamlet is brought to the conflict of dealing with the burden of just his father's death or dealing with both the bitterness of his father's death AND the courage it takes to over come the sins attached to the completed murder of Claudius. Not only is he internally, insane, dark, and depressed, but the environment and atmosphere surrounding his is as well.
