Summary/Abstract: This article was inspired by the fact that the actor Ion Caramitru is considered one of Hamlet's top ten performers in the world and was awarded the title of „Shakespeare Cultural Ambassador to Romania” by the British Council. Like the universal theatre, the Romanian theatre was and remains the witness of a true cult dedicated to Hamlet. In this respect, two major aspects are taken into account: first, the fascination exercised by the character in question, considered a quintessence of Shakespearean drama, and secondly, the interpretative status of excellence that confers glory to those actors who have consecrated themselves to the scenic encounter with Hamlet.
