I'll have you know when I was 11 I decided to read Hamlet and I understood it. I didn't go ask questions of any adults around. I did have a recording, vinyl to listen to after I read it. Hearing the actor’s inflections while reading it is also helpful.
I've actually been to the festival in Stratford when I was in college. That was a long drive!! Both LA and former SO #1 went too but this was before he was a SO.
I started out an English major and I suppose my compromise was being a member of the English club.
Where I live now we have Shakespeare in the Park and I am going to see if I can finally go. Perhaps I can convince brids_owlwoman to go on a date to see The Winter's Tale. :-)
