Hamlet

Best known for playing Sherlock Holmes in the series Sherlock, British actor Benedict Cumberbatch has recently received a number of awards for his acting prowess. Nominated for an Oscar for his role in The Imitation Game, he comes to acting from a true thespian's point of view. So it shouldn't come as a surprise that he stars in the National Theatre production of Hamlet. See the play as it's broadcast today at 11 a.m. at the Cedar Lee Theatre. Tickets are $20. (Niesel)
