Detailed explanation-1: -Act 3 Scene 2 of Hamlet is primarily about the play that Hamlet commissions to prove Claudius guilty. He has actors act out a scene that is a thinly veiled representation of the relationship between Gertrude, her late husband, Hamlet’s father, and Claudius.
Detailed explanation-2: -Summary: It’s the night of the performance of the play, and Hamlet tasks Horatio with gauging Claudius’s reaction to the murder scene. As the courtiers gather to watch, Hamlet acts mad once more, insulting Ophelia with all kinds of indecent taunts. When the play begins, Hamlet carefully observes Claudius.
Detailed explanation-3: -Hamlet confronts Rosencrantz and Guildenstern He knows that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern have been employed by Claudius and his mother to investigate him and he tells them that he’s not easily manipulated. You can take a look at an extract from this scene and watch it in performance here.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hamlet is sick of everyone plotting against him and attempting to play him-he can no longer keep his cool, and lashes out at the weak Rosencrantz and Guildenstern for their transparent betrayal. Polonius enters and tells Hamlet that his mother wants to see him right away.
