Here is my current take on Shakespeare’s ten best plays. I posted a list like this about some years ago. I wonder if I picked the same ones.
If I ever write ten plays, I’ll post my top ten.
Here they are,:
1) A Midsummer Night’s Dream
2) King Lear
3) As You Like It
4) Henry IV (1 and 2)
5) Antony and Cleopatra
6) Twelfth Night
7) The Tempest
8) Macbeth
9) Hamlet
10) Romeo and Juliet (for the language)
