I agree, Shakespeare and other playwrights should be separated into their own categories! I took several classes in Shakespeare during college. I'm very fond of Ibsen and Euripides, too.
i know that. i was saying that part of the reason i liked macbeth better was because its female characters were stronger than hamlet's (in my opinion). i found lady macbeth to be a much stronger character than ophelia.mystery_chick said:Um... Crazy_spinster... Ophelia was from Hamlet....
see i loved a doll's house i just read it this year for fun and loved it!its one of my favorite plays.i just love how ibsen writes the dialogue and gives such description in the stage directions, i dont know i loved it!Existentialist said:I read Ibsen's A Doll's House in AP english... I didn't really like it all too much. The college I was at last year put it on the mainstage.
My favorite plays include Arcadia, Oleanna, Waiting For Godot, the Lesson (La Lecon), and Le Maitre. I'm big on the theater of the absurd. The last two are by Ionesco, and I've read them in both french and english.
i'm jealous. every year my school organized a trip to Stratford for a day to see like two plays. and i was going to go but they only had once bus this year and the seats were filled in one day. and i didn't know about it until the second day! arrggghhh i was so mad!sydbristow said:Every year my family goes to Stratford Ontario to see plays. My favorites are Twelfth Night, Romeo and Juliet, My fair Lady. The ones I did not like were Henry the fith( blahh I fell asleep) and Alls well that ends well. My mom said that Shakespeare must have been having some kind of Crisis when he wrote that play. Oh well I LOVE SHAKESPEARE!!!!
