“'Hamlet' is a play of many strange parts, with ghosts and players, politicians and clowns.”

Meaning

This points to the play’s crowded mix of tones and figures, where tragedy sits beside wit, politics beside the supernatural. The line can be taken to mean that its power comes from that restless variety, not from any single theme. It lands when someone is trying to explain why the work feels so alive onstage, because it keeps shifting shape.
