Hamlet - Secret Shakespeare

You have dissected and distilled Shakespeare for four years of high school. Now, it is time to see if you truly understand what makes Shakespeare, ‘Shakespeare.’ Craft a tragedy of your own that, upon careful analysis by a scholar, would be considered not only heavily influenced by Shakespeare, but might even be considered a modern incarnation of The Bard himself. To those ends, the assessment for Hamlet asks you to produce a dramatic product (play, film, cartoon, comic book, opera, ballet, other?) that demonstrates answers to essential questions raised in Hamlet and employs traditional Shakespearean dramatic devices. This is not a modern retelling of Hamlet or a shortened version. It is inspired by Hamlet, much in the way Shakespeare was inspired by his forbearers and contemporaries.
