Why couldn't Claudius bear the play in Hamlet story?
The play had been chosen and tweaked by Hamlet to resemble as closely as possible the murder of Hamlet Sr. by Claudius according to the ghost.

He had a number of reasons: first, as his subsequent soliloquy shows, he feels guilt about the murder and wishes he could be free of that guilt. Also, some of the audience might have made the connection and have suspected him of killing Hamlet Sr. who everyone thought had died of snakebite.
