| Description |
Possibly playing Shakespeare's original text, as opposed to the David Garrick adaptation more usually seen. (Article 2/1/09) The maddest, merriest comedy Shakespeare ever wrote. As the Elizabethans loved to play it, and in the true spirit of the Master Dramatist, with every mark of unbounded hornage to Shakespeare's genius. |
