22. Character Progression - Ophelia from William Shakespeare's Hamlet (Whitney Hamrick)
Manage episode 341194296 series 3125814
William Shakespeare is considered to be one of the greatest playwrights of all time! With classic's like Romeo & Juliet and Macbeth (aka The Scottish Play), there's no end to his talent and influence. But the main characters aren't always the most influential. For example, Hamlet is the story about a Danish prince who's on a quest to avenge the murder of his father. For my guest this week, that isn't relatable at all. But Ophelia, Hamlet's scorned lover who had her agency stolen by those she trusted until she had nothing left. That possibility rings far truer.
