I was not born under a rhyming planet. . . But I do love the Bard. It has been a while since I have read a play and longer since I have seen one. . . I will need to remedy that this year. Wonder what is on at the Globe?

I came to Shakespeare in High School. I took drama classes and we went up to Southern Utah University (where I would eventually go to school and is well known for their Shakespeare Festival) one weekend for a theatre competition and I wanted to know more. When my parents asked me what I wanted for Christmas that year I said a Collected Works and my Grandmother gave me a lovely edition that my 16 year old self was smart enough to not mark up.

I would love to get in a time machine and see a play at The Globe or The Rose or The Swan.  . .
