Challenge Post! A Year of Shakespeare
Jan. 22nd, 2025 05:40 pmYes, I did not stop myself from signing up for this one. It does help with the re-reading challenge (I've read at least a third of the plays before) and potentially with the Classics challenge. The list of plays by month follows below the cut! I'm starting late as I received the list around 1/20.
( The Quality of Mercy is not strained... )
For my own benefit, I also want to note movie adaptations for every play below. Some plays are certainly more popular in cinematic adaptations than others, and I won't include any that I've heard were terrible... but I live in hope that I will be able to find a good one for them all. Some of these are simply recordings of theatrical performances. If the title is unchanged, I will label the director/theatre company.
