I am far from a Shakespeare aficionado, and I’ve never been an especially big fan of poetry, but I’ve always been captivated by the Bard’s stories. I enjoy the scholarly challenge of reading Shakespeare’s plays, but I really love seeing them performed live. As such, one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had was the privilege of going to see Shakespeare Live with H.L. Shepler when it screened in theatres over the summer. It was absolutely marvelous. It’s screening tonight on PBS and I am so excited to see it again!
If you have even a slight interest or curiosity in the Bard, don’t miss Shakespeare Live.
Great performances, indeed. Not to mention hosted by two of my favorite people, David Tennant and Catherine Tate.
If you can’t watch it when it airs, you can watch episodes of PBS programs at pbs.org/video.
