What was your first experience of Shakespeare?
I don't know if this was my first experience, but it really chimed with me. Growing up, I saw a lot of plays but when I was about 16, I saw Filter’s version of Twelfth Night at the Tricycle Theatre (now the Kiln). In the party scene, before Malvolio comes in, they handed out pizza to the audience and set up a huge game with those fuzzy balls that you throw and catch onto a disc. It was a raucous affair, a frivolous moment of fun that meant when Malvolio came in to stop the fun, we all felt completely chastised, because we were part of the action. Something really clicked for me – I was forced to engage with it in a different way and I felt the wrath of Malvolio coming in and shaking us all up.

i finished the merry wives of windsor today btw. 4 shakespeare plays left to go
#tales from diana#i'm in a pickle bc i've been burning through the remainders in the last year or so in a way that makes me... melancholic#i didnt hate merry wives even though i wasn't looking forward to it for a very long time bc i knew it was mostly prose#im neither a big falstaff fan (im sorry) not do i get the most charm from shakespeare from his prose#but admittedly it was still rather enjoyable as a comedy. you dont get a lot of fake cuckoldry plots from shakespeare specifically#not in comedy certainly! so i enjoyed the trickery of it#not the worst shakespeare play as far as pure entertainment value at all. nothing's as boring as henry viii#that one was a big disappointment#i have one play in each category left (counting the romances as their own category) (and counting kinsmen as his work)#coriolanus. king john. measure for measure actually! and two noble kinsmen#i know a lot about measure for measure already i just have never read it in full. twelfth night was like that as a reading experience too#i wasn't in a rush to get to it but in the case of measure. i wanted to get merry wives out of the way first#and leave my last pure comedy to be something i would almost certainly enjoy more#now im kind of in a pickle bc i feel the ecstasy of being tempted to just finish the complete plays already#but i also wanna pace myself and read other things#i kinda have this idea of what if i saved the last 4 to read in 2025? but we're not even halfway through 2024#i dont have that kinda patience#maybe ill reread some old favorites in the meantime or something. idk#i dont think i mentioned it on here but i got the rsc complete works second edition from 2022#last month! bc my riverside is in delicate condition. but i switched back between the two when reading merry wives#i just couldnt help it. i miss my mother. it's always going to be the most personally comfortable book for me to read from#i read the majority of these plays in that volume. that book TAUGHT ME to read shakespeare#but i need to be strong and i also enjoy comparative literary studies and a more recent book has a lot to offer#im yammering on to myself incoherently im sure nobody really cares what im saying. even i dont! ok goodbye goodnight

this is the one submission I got for Viola/Olivia and it's been making me laugh ever since I first got it
what's funny to me is this would be a challenge for me if it was for anyone other than one of the main pairs in Twelfth Night. don't worry submitter, I've seen this play at least 5 times and written multiple assignments in school about the scenes Olivia and Viola interact, I can come up with the "particularly homoerotic lines" practically off the top of my head! (even though those school days were 6 years ago now)
#antonio/sebastian and olivia/viola are the two where I feel like I practically have a degree in them#lars speaks#btw my 'at least 5' twelfth nights are. the all men globe production. kite theatre. national theatre 2017. rsc 2017. and the movie#I feel like I've probably seen another globe one at some point?#Not physically at the globe ofc most of these are films of productions

#btw the list is#the borgias#Julius Caesar national theatre#Julius Caesar donmar warehouse#hbo rome but only the bits with Cassius#yeah I know#Twelfth night rsc production#maybe The tempest donmar warehouse#Coriolanus donmar warehouse. at least I think it's donmar warehouse#Julius Caesar (1953) maybe#also Twelfth night national theatre#I should find some King Lear#and I just discovered that a bunch of books I downloaded are formatted so weirdly I can't read them#personal#I'm losing my mind here

Winter Warmer
TWELFTH NIGHT Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford upon Avon, Thursday 19th December 2024 Prasanna Puwanarajah’s new production of Shakespeare’s melancholy rom-com adopts the increasingly common approach of swapping the first scene with the second, so, instead of Orsino’s famous opening line, “If music be the food of love,” we see Viola scrambling ashore, having survived the shipwreck in which…
