I did Julius Caesar at school and haven't touched it since. Not an especial Shakespeare fan, but I've read a few and some of them have been quite memorable.

I saw Taming of the Shrew at Stratford (the obligatory school visit) with the late Alan Bates playing opposite Judy Dench, and then I saw another production a few years ago with Nicholas Smith (Mr Rumbold) playing Kate's father - he was brilliant!

I also studied Richard III under the tutelage of Peter Davison, who edited its first quarto edition and really knows more about that play than a lot of people, so I couldn't have learnt it from anyone better.

Think my two favourites, though, have to be 'Richard II' for its themes and imagery, and 'Measure for Measure' for sheer emotional impact.
macbeth
yeah,Macbeth
...hot potato orchestra stalls, Puck will make amends ...aaagh !
PLEASE refer to it as "the Scottish Play" in future !
I've seen more as plays than I've read.

I remember doing McBeth at school - lots of blood and gore and murder - just the ticket for a bunch of teenage boys.

Then we had to go onto Hardy :c(

Couldn't stand him then, still can't plod, plod, depressing, plod.

In the end the English teacher gave up and we "cried havoc and let slip the dogs of war" with Julius Ceasar

Guess I've seen a lot that I've not read - Quite liked Brannagh's Henry V - especially the narators introduction appologising for the poor facilities of the stage to recreate a battlefield before throwing open the doors on to every special effect Hollywood could muster
I am not a native English speaker. So please help me to solve my doubt. What I want to know is that, the grammatically correct way of asking questions to get the following statements as answers.
1. Obhama is the 43rd president of USA. ( Suppose I didn't know he is the 43rd president, what question can I ask to get it?)
2. As of 13 September 2010, Federer is ranked World No. 3. (Suppose I didn't know he is the 3rd ranker, what question can I ask to get it? )
3. Mary was first in the group.
4. She has secured a 2nd rank in university exam. (suppose I didn’t know she has secured a second rank.)
I Saw Taming of the shrew with Vanessa Redgrave and was compelled to read it, but was disappointed, have seen quite a few others since, these are plays and to enjoy them fully they should be watched being acted out.
rubinaanwar, you probably need to ask a separate question to get answers properly, but...

What number president is Obama? or How many presidents have there been before Obama?

What is Federer's ranking?

What ranking did Mary get in her exam? or Where did Mary come in her exams?
jno, i am really sorry for that, it happened accidently. it was really sweet of you to ans my question.thank you
