My first big date with my husband was to go and see Romeo and Juliet performed in Stratford on Avon. That was a momentous night. I love the sonnets too.

Macbeth is among my favorites too. It is fascinating how things are still valid today. How power corrupts and leads to dictatorship.<br />Hamlet is another one of the plays I admire. This 'Blood and Thunder' tragedy is a perfect example of a great thriller.<br />Thank you for visiting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06645785208371532099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9136317338267812281.post-1901446354779245702015-04-03T20:53:49.409+03:002015-04-03T20:53:49.409+03:00I love Shakespeare.

Richard II intrigues me because of the history and the way the author portrays him.
