| “He has a wonderful sense of comedy. He has a wonderful sense of drama and a wonderful sense of tragedy, but also his gift with language is extraordinary.” |
Shakespeare's Relevance Today |
“He chose subjects that were very basic and very universal. The emotional content of his plays is valid today.” |
| Falstaff. “Because he is larger than life. He is outrageously indulgent and constantly trying to get away with things, and no matter how badly he is caught, he finds a way to squirm out of things.” |
Favorite Shakespeare Character |
Benedick from Much Ado About Nothing. “He has such a nice character arc from being such a pushover to being madly in love because someone told him that someone liked him.” |
| “The readiness is all,” from Hamlet |
