watching the merchant of venice and i am... uncomfortable

#the actor for shylock is so good and so convincing i forgot i was watching an actor #and the actor for antonio spat in his face and he didn't even flinch #the actor for antonio is also really good but he's infuriating because he's antonio #tales from diana #i havent watched this play once since i read it four years ago #i'm watching the rsc production from 2015 with all the outright homoeroticism #antonio and bassanio kissed in their first scene together #it gives me such ...... feelings to really hate this violently prejudicial white gay #i am uncomfortable #p sure im still in act i
