The correct answer to this question is Rosencrantz. In Hamlet, the conversation changes when Rosencrantz informs Hamlet that the entertainers are coming. They begin to talk about acting and theater, for Rosencrantz lets Hamlet know they are on the way to perform a play for the King. In the tragedy Hamlet, Rosencrantz is close friends with Guildenstern.

Together they were very close with Hamlet but ended up backstabbing him and agreeing to bring him to death. Hamlet is a tragedy by Shakespeare. Although the exact date is not known, it was written between 1599 and 1602. It is often used as a point of study in high school literature classes.

The focus of all the conversation changes to acting and the theater when Rosencrantz informs Hamlet that the players (entertainers) are coming to the castle to perform a play for the King. They deliberate the practice of child actors in the theatre and Hamlet takes additional opportunity to affront Polonius when he comes in to tell Hamlet about the players.

Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play, and it is considered among the most potent and influential works of world literature. Rosencrantz is a minor character in the play. In the play, they find themselves on the road to Elsinore Castle.
