    Ya'll are so fun and cute!
    Hearing you talk about resetting Shakespeare's plays in steam punk, modern day, or in space, makes me think about how universal his works really are. The very fact that we can easily reimagine his stories in so many different eras or settings, just shows how his characters and stories really encompass timeless human emotions and dilemmas.
    I finished reading all of Shakespeare's plays and sonnets a couple of years ago. It only took me about 20 years! haha! Like most authors/playwrights, he has some really good ones, some mediocre, and some seriously awful works. haha! My favorite play is Much Ado About Nothing, because I adore the banter between Beatrice and Benedict.
    Happy Reading!

      Beatrice and Benedick are awesome! Two of my favourite Shakespeare characters. That's great that you've read all of Shakespeare's works!

    The Reduced Shakespeare Company described Titus Andronicus as "Shakespeare went through a brief Quentin Tarantino phase".

      That is such a good description of it. Is that the play where they turn Titus Andronicus into a cooking show?

    I loved how you support each other. I read some Shakespeare in high school, but as non native speaker of English, I prefer to see his plays on stage.

      Thanks! Shakespeare's plays are meant to be watched so that totally makes sense.

      That makes sense. Shakespeare's generally more fun on stage anyway. :)

    This is such a fun video! Thank you both! I read the requisite Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet in high school and it all went over my head. I'm just starting to re-discover Shakespeare now. The next play I want to read is As You Like It because the eldest daughter in The Penderwicks is named Rosalind, and I just put it together that Rosalind is a Shakespeare character. I have to admit that I love the Broadway Taming of the Shrew, Kiss Me Kate. So many classic, fun, singable songs.

      I'm glad you're getting into Shakespeare. I grew up watching the 50's movie version of Kiss Me Kate. It's so much fun! I think my favourite song was Always True To You.
