    Well I would like to have one of the less well known ones this time round, or maybe I mean less studied in whats it called mandatory schooling... Id quite like one where I didnt already know the storyline because its that integrated into everything like Romeo and Juliet for example ( that is I DONT want to do Romeo and Juliet ) or Ceaser, Anthony and Cleopatra
    I hope ths make sense....

    I am going to vote for Merry Wives of Windsor:

    1. I haven't read it and am not even sure what it is about.

    2. I like the title.

    2. Don't mind if it is not elected at the end either; it is no big deal. It is one play; not a life-time commitment or Presidential election or sumfing.


    So go Merry Wives of Windsor!

    It's too soon for me to vote, and as I am reading and re-reading all of Shakespeare's plays. Maybe his last play, henry VIII or the Two Noble Kinsmen, or hmmmmmmmm.... let me see, I can do someething, I won't read The Merry Wives of Windsor and this becomes the last play for your (Scheherazade) sake

    I must admit that MWOW is the only Shakespeare play I've read that I can say I really didn't like.
    I wrote a poem on a leaf and it blew away...
