There is no 'narrator of the play". In some plays we see actors doing the actions while a narrator tells us what is going on. Our Town, for example, or anything written for Grade Two students. Hamlet is not that kind of play. Hamlet does have a special friend in Horatio, in who he confides, which makes him a confidant (unless he is being played as a woman, in which case she would be a confidante) and who he asks, as he dies, to "tell my story". Horatio asks Fortinbras to "let me speak to the yet unknowing world how these things came about" and Fortinbras says "Let us haste to hear it", but the play ends before Horatio narrates anything, mostly because we have seen everything which has happened and it would be boring to hear it all again. (That didn't stop Shakespeare in plays like Cymbeline or Twelfth Night, however.)
