Shakespere plays badly described in one sentence:

Romeo And Juliet - Your "Love had different plans" writing excuse ended with a restraining order and two dead kids

Macbeth - Girlboss uses her sopping pathetic wet dog of a husband to gain political power, ends horribly.

Hamlet - Pathetic emo boy destroys career of his creepy uncle

Titus Andronicus - It's a soap opera because after you watch it you feel the need to wash yourself thoroughly

The Tempest - One man's real person ship fic saves the government from corruption

Merchant Of Venice - The way to make your play where the main villain is a jewish person portraying every negative stereotype is by making the main christian characters the biggest pricks in existance

Twelfth Night - Shakespeare was a COWARD for not making the woman marry the sister and the man marry the brother.

Othello - A commentary on racism slightly ruined by the fact that the main villain shares a name with a cartoon disney parrot

Who wants to get in a time machine and go tell him?

from that 2005 R&J essay by David Tennant

#you know like in“ vincent and the doctor” #we all know it's a matter of time before he plays lear #just play iago and he's literally ticked all the roles #and played others too. to great acclaimn #david tennant #richard ii #benedick #hamlet #romeo #macbeth #i haven't even listed all his shakespeare roles #his career in shakespeare really deserves more credit and praise #because it is seriously impressive #the only reason one wouldn't consider him to be a great shakesperean actor is if you are a pretentious asshole #king lear #iago #othello #romeo and juliet essay #doctor who #shakespeare #rsc #shakespeare actors

“This was always going to happen/She’s been dead since the beginning” in the tragedies of William Shakespeare

+ Bonus - Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead, Tom Stoppard:

#Shakespeare #Hamlet #Romeo and Juliet #Julius Caesar #Macbeth #Richard II #(technically not a tragedy SORRY) #Othello and Lear are also HEAVILY steeped in this but the quotes aren’t quite as punchy as these #alternate title of post: Shakespeare was really REALLY into the theme of predestination huh… #the inevitability of the stage tragedy #you are killing them by continuing to watch

Crazy to think that if Shakespeare wrote any of his plays today he would instantly be cancelled by the left and accused of woke propaganda by the right

The Woman's Part

Sooo hey. I finally did something with my Shakespeare MA...

The Woman's Part is a collection of original prose and erasure poetry inspired by Shakespeare's women — their unlived lives, unspoken desires, and unwritten stories — using speeches and characters from thirteen plays.

It's been described as:

"A small piece of genius [showing] not only a profound understanding of Shakespeare, but of humankind in general." — Cathy Ulrich, author of Ghosts of You

and

"[The Woman's Part] has reimagined Ophelia and Juliet and more into striking freedom through speaking up, sailing away, and eating hearts." — Gwen Kirby, author of Shit Cassandra Saw

and

"To read it is to join the rebellion. An affecting and finely-crafted masterpiece which invites us to unlearn our deepest Bard-based archetypes. Stunning, incisive and fearless writing from one of the most exciting new voices on the literary scene." — Dr Chris Laoutaris, The Shakespeare Institute

~

I put my heart, my rage, and all my obsession with Shakespeare into this, and I would love for you to read it.

Available from most places you get books — a list of easy links at Stanchion Books

Shakespeare side of Tumblr.

I want to get more into his works but don’t know where to start. Guidance is welcome.

"Why are you reading Shakespeare fanfic"

Maybe i'm just sad ok. Maybe i like the idea of Othello not having to deal with Iago's shit. Maybe i like watching Hamlet be a college student. Maybe i like Romeo dying painfully while Juliet lives happily. Maybe i like the idea of Lady Macbeth fucking me. Let me live.
