In this assignment, you will think about how to adapt Shakespeare’s play for a live performance. You will
create a digital storyboard that shows how you would adapt Hamlet’s soliloquy to present it to a modern
audience. Read Hamlet’s soliloquy, and then write an adaptation of it in contemporary English. Focus on
maintaining the meaning and tone of the original by paying close attention to the impact of word choice.
Use the Hamlet figures and speech bubbles to show how an actor would perform your adaptation. Be
sure that there is a strong relationship between the gestures of the figures and the meaning and tone of
the text
