Shakespeare is not necessarily for high school students. Many people continue to enjoy and appreciate his plays even after they are no longer studying them.

I know that I never saw a Shakespeare play while I was in high school (unless you count the movie Julius Caesar starring Marlon Brando), but I have since watched quite a few and enjoyed them.

No, never cared for Shakespeare. Probably blasphemy for a writer, but there it is. If I want to read something from that era I'll go for Alexandre Dumas, a far superior writer.

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.

YES! I watched Measure for Measure at the Old Globe Theater in San Diego and it blew my mind.

I like Shakespeare, although on an unrelated note, I do NOT think he wrote those plays - but I digress......

I have seen excerpts of his plays and quite frankly don't think I could sit thru a live production of an entire play..

THoroughly enjoyed Olivier's 1948 movie version of "Hamlet"......saw it when in jr. high and memorized many of the lines!!  So I much prefer the movie versions for some strange reason....

But again, he didn't write them!!!
