Ok, I’d never seen this before. The Beatles performing Pyramus and Thisbe from Midsummer’s, complete in costume. Great stuff!

I didn’t realize that they even had such sub-categories like this, but apparently Amazon has a whole Shakespeare Store. I just wish they had more fun merchandise like Shakespeares Den does – action figures, greeting cards, all that sort of stuff. How often do you want to buy books and movies?

Putting my 3yr old to bed last night:

Me: “And remember to be good for Mommy tomorrow, right?”

Her: “And tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.”

Me: “Creeps in this petty pace.”

Her: “What?”

Me: “Never mind.”

I can’t help myself :).

I just tripped over Confessions of an Undercover Geek, where he’s just finished a paper for his Politics Through Fiction class entitled “Shakespeare and the Pursuit of Hope and Purpose Within a Society.” He asks folks to read it and tell him what they think.

I figure a little boost of traffic from some dedicated Shakespeare fans wouldn’t hurt, so do the man a favor if you get a moment and hook him up with some comments.

Here’s an interesting idea, I suppose – you can sign up to have a Shakespearean play emailed to you in pieces. I guess maybe it’s easier to mentally set yourself for reading the whole thing if you only have to tackle pieces at a time? Apparently the company has quite the boatload of books as part of this service, too. Not just our friendly neighborhood Bard.
