Grand Theft Auto: How Shakespeare’s Hamlet found a virtual stage

Mental-health struggles pepper the trio’s asides.

Oosterveen battles isolation as a single man – mentioning the loss of his only remaining relative.

And, as the documentary progresses, Grylls openly argues with Crane, accusing him of neglecting family duties through his growing obsession with the game.

For some peace in the Los Santos chaos, Crane purchases a virtual office for planning meetings, paying to rename its foyer sign Elsinore, in a nod to the Danish castle in Hamlet.

But the group soon starts questioning the value of art and what they are trying to create, particularly when Dipo, the player originally cast as Hamlet, quits rehearsals for his new “real-world” job.

The reality check sees Crane lash out, dismissing their project as “not a real thing”, only for Oosterveen’s frustrations to boil over.

“You’ve got a wife, you’ve got kids,” he says, “I don’t have any of those things.”
