What does Hamlet ask Horatio to do during the performance?

Depends on which part of the book... if it's near the beginning, then Hamlet asks them to pay no mind to his crazy behavior which he will fake later on.


How does king Claudius react the play?

He leaves part way through. The similarity of the crime depicted in the play and his own drives him crazy and he can't watch it any more. How do we know this? Because in the next scene Claudius is berating himself for the murder. "Oh, my offence is rank, it smells to heaven. It has the eldest primal curse on it--a brother's murder."


How was Marcus Claudius Marcellus poisoned?

Marcus Claudius Marcellus, a Roman general and statesman, was reportedly poisoned through a deliberate act orchestrated by his political enemies. Historical accounts suggest that he was given a poisoned drink, possibly wine, while attending a banquet. This act was part of a broader political struggle during a tumultuous period in Roman history. The exact details of the poisoning remain somewhat unclear, but it is widely accepted that it was a calculated assassination.


Why does Gertrude marry so quickly in Hamlet after her husbands death?

Some folks have speculated that Gertrude is the type of woman who will quickly gravitate to the most powerful man around. When Hamlet Sr. died, the most powerful person was Claudius so she gravitated to him. Others might say that things were pretty far advanced between Claudius and Gertrude before the murder and so it was a short step from there to marriage. Claudius says, "I am still possessed of those effects for which I did the murder: my crown, my own ambition, and my queen." Being able to marry Gertrude was clearly part of his motive for the murder so he must have known beforehand that he would get somewhere with her.


What examples of indecision does Hamlet?

wether or not he's giong to kill himself. "To be or not to be, that is the question" Hamlet also has to debate whether or not he will go through with the revenge he is seeking for his father's death, which is to kill Claudius. This is what the whole play is about, revenge. In Act 3, Scene 2, Hamlet makes the players put on a play mimicking what had happened in Denmark (i.e. a murder puts poison in its victim's ear). Hamlet asks Horatio to watch Claudius' expression during the play, and Horatio confirms that Claudius seems uneasy and feels the guilt, as he brings the play to the end. Claudius' reaction confirms Hamlet's decision, and Hamlet knows that he is making the right decision by seeking revenge on Claudius for killing his father.

What news does king claudius announce at the opening of scene?

I'm going to guess that you are asking about Act 1 Scene 2. In this scene Claudius talks about his marriage to Gertrude and Young Fortinbras's planned invasion of Denmark. But these are not news, since they are "what you know", facts already well-known to those there. Indeed, Horatio showed in the previous scene that he knew about them. The new part is Claudius's strategy to find a diplomatic solution to this problem, by raising a complaint with the invalid king of Norway, whose subjects Fortinbras is poaching for his private army.
