Guys!!! Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre has decided to bring Hamlet to every country in the world from April 2014 to April 23, 2016.
When I found this out, the first thing I thought about was why do this, which, honestly there are hundreds of reasons why this is amazing. But then I thought about something else: there is only this company that will perform this play and in English only. There are a lot of countries in which very few people speak English.

Shakespeare’s work is renowned because of its exceptional use of language that enhances the intricate plots. Is the fact that in some countries people will not understand a single a word an advantage or disadvantage?
