I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'shakespeare's prince' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for hal that I've seen before include "Man" , "Prince -, Falstaff's companion (Henry IV, Pt I)" , "Henry, in short" , "Odyssean character" , "Bluff Prince" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
