I did NOT enjoy my 12th night experince. I HATE kissing onstage, because the STUPID guys are always trying to make it "realistic" during practice...it really was not plesant. I REALLY like the Taming of the Shrew! ^_^ It's my second favorite Shakespeare play! ^_^

My favorite Shakesphere play would have to be Romeo and Juliet. I've been studying it since I was seven (I'm fifteen now) trying to get more out of it. I've done several versions of it, and i still think I can learn more about it. But my favorite character? Probably Cassisus from Julius Caesar, just because I like his name. Favorite Shakesphere show I ever saw? As You Like It.

The best production I've seen of a Shakespearean play was A Midsummer Night's Dream. But, it was at the Stratford festival (Ontario, not -upon-Avon... heh. I wish.), so, what else can be expected.
I did see this absolutely horrible rendition of Macbeth last year, though. It was awful. Ugh... ewww.
I definetly can't pick one play as my favourite. The comedies and tragedies are so different. My favourite comedy if Twelfth Night (last year I tried to get the school to put it on. I didn't happen), and my favourite tragedy is (what else?) Hamlet. I really want to play Ophelia some day...
Shakespeare isn't done often here. So, I've never had a chance to be in a produciton. They did do Comedy of Errors this summer, but I didn't get a chance to see it. Plus, it was a professional production with paid actors and adults and stuff.

Favourite production I ever saw was definitely King Lear. I really want to see Macbeth and Hamlet though.
I've always found tragedies a lot more interesting than comedies, so that would be an easy favourite, Macbeth. As for comedies, I'd haveb to say A Midsummer Nights Dream.

Having just watched the victorian version of 12th night with Helena Boham Carter I have to say I absolutely adore that play. I really want my school to do it so that I can be the clown ( the songs are really great.) I also love the Chorus from Henry V, I'm such a sad loser that I have learnt the first two prolouges and am working on the rest!! stare

I've played Balthazar in a fantastic production of Romeo and Juliet. I wish I could have played someone a little better but there we go.
I love Taming of the Shrew, Macbeth, Midsummer Night's Dream...
I'd love to play Lady Macbeth, Mercutio and Puck ^_^
The worst Shakespeare play, in my opnion, is King Lear. I didn't mind it until I had to study it in drama. I nearly fell aspleep during it when we went to see it in London. My God, it's so dull!

I have a theory it could be transcribed into a sitcom. Lear goes around trying to crash at peoples houses after a night of being a drunken a*****e, and people keep throwing him out.

Kalemei I've played Balthazar in a fantastic production of Romeo and Juliet.
Oh my God! I played Balthazar in our Romeo and Juliet production last year (the show wasn't all that good though.)
And, recently, I wrapped up an astounding production of Julius Caesar, in which I had the title role. That's the more serious Shakespeare I've done.

Well, Romeo and Juliet still is pretty heavy. It's not exactly As You Like It xd
I still can't tell if its nuts I find that funny. Ah well, I guess we're all nuts in here, our front door says so.
