-An absurdist, existentialist tragicomedy that expands upon the exploits of two minor characters from Shakespeare's ''[[Hamlet]]'', the courtiers Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Between these episodes the two protagonists voice their confusion at the progress of events occurring onstage without them in ''[[Hamlet]]'', of which they have no direct knowledge. First staged at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 1966. Filmed in 1990, directed by Stoppard with Gary Oldman and Tim Roth. The movie won the Golden Lion at the 47th Venice International Film Festival.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosencrantz_%26_Guildenstern_Are_Dead_(film)].
