Gee, Shakespeare, I wonder what answer will get the 10 pts!?

Just kidding!. I have a couple!. 1)Tennessee Williams -- I performed the role of Tom in a college production and was amazed at his monologues!. They were so perfectly crafted and just chock full of good, performable stuff!. I actually was too old at the time to play Tom, but since the opening monologue says it's a memory play, I did all of the monologues, and a "Younger Tom" stepped into the scenework while I watched from the edges of the stage!. 2) In a very different way, Stephen Sondheim is a favorite of mine!. also brilliant and an innovator!. 3) And not because of your screenname but because I've spent two years in a professional company, Shakespeare is also on my short list of favorites!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like a variety, the thing with me is I tend to like one play, and not the play write, there are too many similarities!. Shakespeare, for instance I like Macbeth, but no others!. I love pays that have been written and performed by amateurs too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I love the works of Oscar Wilde and Noel Coward, because it's funny, but really clever too!. Wit conquers all!Www@QuestionHome@Com
