Of all the great plays ever written , Hamlet is the best known and most popular among all educated and cultured people. When we hear of that play we immediately think of the immor al names and heroes of the stage that have been associated with that great character , Kean , Forrest , Booth , Irving and at the present time Mantell , South ern and Sanford Dodge and many others , Mr. Dodge is one of the latest and truest expo nents of the wonderfully com plex and difficult soul of "Ham let , " prince of Denmark. No matter how many Hamlets you have seen or will see , you will be more than delighted with Mr. Dodge's interpretation of this beautiful part.
