EVERY TIME ! (Drama Poetry) I get something new from each viewing or each reading.

Out of all the millions and millions of plays ever written...

and the thousands and thousands of playwrites....

there is a REASON why it is SHAKESPEARE

(and not Marlow
or Shaw
or Webber)

that stands out against the backdrop of masters.

Signup and attend six nights of "adult education" classes where-ever they may be offered in your community.

This guy is DEEP and a lot of the beauty flys over-head until someone points out.

You are in for a lot of fun as you discover (it will last years)

(opening of R&J is absolutely filthy, maiden-heads, unsheated swords, naked tools etc....this was to get the audience laughing and the graoundings to shut-up...R&J begins two acts of comedy and ends in tragedy that the audiance knows (dramatic irony) is coming....the sonnet at the beginning told them so)

(None of his material (plot/story-line) was original it all came from established/published historical stories)

If nothing else....read Cliff/Spark Notes online and watch a video....then read a "School Sucks" collection of free essays.....then watch a different video of the same.....then read "Blue Monkey" notes.....watch a different video.....then read an on-line discusion....then get another video of the same....then go back to original you watched.

EVERY TIME - you will get something different.

NOW!!!! See it LIVE On Stage!!!! at least once....preferably at least three times with three different directors.

Do not
go to your grave
without having prepared and then seen a live performance
of SHAKESPEARE!!!!
