Cambridge School Shakespeare

Act 1

Scene 1

Elsinore. A platform before the castle

Enter two Sentinels-[first,] Francisco, [who paces up and down at his post; then] Bernardo, [who approaches him].

Bernardo. Who's there?
Francisco. Nay, answer me. Stand and unfold yourself.
Bernardo. Long live the King!
Francisco. Bernardo?
Bernardo. He.
Francisco. You come most carefully upon your hour.
Bernardo. 'Tis now struck twelve. Get thee to bed, Francisco.
Francisco. For this relief much thanks. 'Tis bitter cold,
And I am sick at heart.
Bernardo. Have you had quiet guard?
Francisco. Not a mouse stirring.
Bernardo. Well, good night.
If you do meet Horatio and Marcellus,
The rivals of my watch, bid them make haste.

Enter Horatio and Marcellus.

Francisco. I think I hear them. Stand, ho! Who is there?
Horatio. Friends to this ground.
Marcellus. And liegemen to the Dane.
Francisco. Give you good night.
Marcellus. O, farewell, honest soldier.
Who hath reliev'd you?
Francisco. Bernardo hath my place.
Give you good night. Exit.
Marcellus. Holla, Bernardo!
Bernardo. Say-
What, is Horatio there ?
Horatio. A piece of him.

练习 act desgin

可通过排练体会此剧开场紧张气氛。建议四人一组。排练时可讨论一下各点，注意目的都是为了在此剧开场时抓住观众注意力和制造戏剧性。
1.观众们首先看到的是什么？例如，在第一个观众进场前，可以安排Francisco作为哨兵在舞台上巡逻。

2. Bernardo,作为接班的哨兵，向站岗的Francisco 问话，与军队中做法相反（应该Francisco 问他）。你如何利用这个错误加强紧张气氛？
   Long live the King 是密码，在后面揭示出国王之死时，造成讽刺
3. 在莎士比亚的时代，戏剧通常在白天上演。找出剧中有助于制造夜晚和黑暗印象的词组和短语。
4. 画出士兵所穿的服装。
