Imagine...you have been granted access to the play of Hamlet. You are however, allowed to save only one from the last scene. Who do you choose and why? [10 marks]

Ok lets go through the characters who die and who should be saved-

Hamlet- Look he’s been waiting to die this whole time. He’s not all that upset about it. And would I really wanna be like “hey you’re alive now, also Fortunbras  (idk how to spell that and the play isn’t here with me) is here so you’ll have to deal with him maybe taking over your kingdom haha” I’ll give him a 6/10 points for how revivable he is.

Claudius- 0/10 points. The whole point of the play was to watch him die

Gertrude- She didn’t have to die, but then again, she didn’t have to marry her brother-in-law, so ehhh. I’ll give her a 4/10

Laertes- I kinda feel bad for him, because yes, Hamlet killed his father, and he should have the same rights of revenge as Hamlet had. So although I don’t really like him, I think he should be the one who gets to revive. 9/10 revive points.
