Hi! I just joined this community. I very much love all things Shakespeare and Hamlet is my favourite play. What do you all think of Polonius?

As of yesterday there is a new community in LJ for fans of Miguel de Cervantes and William Shakespeare and most especially for fans of both geniuses. Join and let's get the discussion going. :) miguel_william

Subject:Twelfth Night discussion Posted by:lotrvhluva. Time:1:40 pm. Mood: giddy.
Hey guys, I'm directing a production of Twelfth Night this summer, and I was wondering aimlessly, what would you guys do if you were directing this play, in the way of costuming, editing (read- shortening), music, etc.?

The Shakespeare RPG's up, if anyone else wants to join. Lots of geekery and fun. There are several people pending, but we'd love more players. pseudoglobeCross-posted to several Shakespeare communities.

This community obviously doesn't have a moderated membership policy, but it'd be really helpful for me if you post a comment, message, or email somewhere to say when you've just joined. Just so I can keep track of new members. Or maintain my ego. Whichever you prefer.

Subject:Othello Posted by:telescope13. Time:10:28 pm. Mood: contemplative.
Here's an interesting thought.I'm taking a Shakespeare course at UNB in New Brunswick and I love it to death. We just finished studying Othello, and learned about white men playing Othello after painting their skin black.Has there, and if there hasn't, why hasn't there been a version of Othello done where Othello is white and everyone else is black? I think it would be very interesting. Instead of focusing on his blackness, they would have to focus on his difference instead.Just an idea I had.

Subject:Which play is your favorite, and why? Posted by:lotrvhluva. Time:1:42 pm. Mood: calm.
Ok, so now that we actually have members, I thought I'd pose a question to the community: Which, if any, of the plays is your favorite? For me, it's Twelfth Night, with a close second from Merchant of Venice. I love Twelfth Night because I love the escapism feel of Illyria, and I love Venice because the characters are so complex and I have a love/hate emotion associated with all of them, I guess. What about yours?
