Hyperion to a Satyr – The Fire and Water Podcast Network’s Hamlet Podcast – continues Siskoid’s scene-by-scene deep dive into Shakespeare’s masterwork, discussing the text, but also performance and staging through the lens of several films, television, comics and even a rock opera. In Act 5, Scene 2, Part 1, Hamlet is presented with a friendly contest that’s likely a trap, but he’s ready for whatever comes next.
