The way to really appreciate Shakespeare is to watch a first class theatrical production, especially live. This past fall we went to a production of King Lear at the Stratford Festival in Ontario. It was a weekday matinee and we were at first dismayed to discover that half the audience comprised young teenagers -about 500 of them. We expected a lot of distracted talking and texting and, basically, a a group of sullen, bored adolescents who wished they were anywhere else. It was so gratifying to witness the most rapt audience I've seen in long time, culminating in a long standing ovation.

A reflection on The Tragedy of Hamlet!
The Tragedy of Hamlet is one of Shakespeare's most famous and enduring works. The play follows the story of Prince Hamlet of Denmark, who is visited by the ghost of his father and urged to seek revenge against his uncle, who has murdered his father and seized the throne.
One of the things that makes Hamlet so special is its complex characters. Hamlet himself is a deeply troubled and conflicted character, struggling with grief, anger, and self-doubt. Other characters, such as Ophelia, are also richly drawn and add depth to the play.
Another noteworthy aspect of Hamlet is its exploration of themes such as revenge, betrayal, and the corrupting influence of power. These themes are still relevant today, and the play's exploration of them continues to resonate with audiences.
Hamlet is also notable for its language, which is poetic, eloquent, and full of memorable phrases. Lines such as "To be, or not to be" and "Something is rotten in the state of Denmark" have become iconic and continue to be quoted and referenced today.
In conclusion, The Tragedy of Hamlet is a masterpiece of literature that continues to captivate audiences and inspire reflection on important themes and human experiences. Its enduring popularity is a testament to Shakespeare's enduring influence and the timeless appeal of his work. 1:11

Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
idk, Shakespeare sounds and looks like stuff to scam stupid rich people
Shakespeare was the theatres greatest craftsman of plays with which he proceeded to torture generations of innocent British school children. He wasted no time at all in saying the slightest thing of interest to them. Instead he made sure of including endless speeches in the outdated prose of his time in his plays so that the torture on the minds of the innocent school children was an exquisite joy he beheld ;for he was a fiend so opposed in his soul to the long suffering children of Britannia. May the great Queen Britttania rescue us all from this devil.
😳😳 serious?
