To mark the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death, an all-star lineup of actors performed a comedy sketch at the Royal Shakespeare Company debating how to deliver Hamlet’s famous line: “To be or not to be, that is the question.”
Dame Judi Dench, Tim Minchin, Harriet Walter, David Tennant, Paapa Essiedu, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rory Kinnear, and Sir Ian McKellen each took a turn emphasizing different parts of the line. As president of the Royal Shakespeare Company, Charles had the final say.
“To be or not to be, that is the question,” he said.
