Cool I'm doing a poetry module thie year but I'm finding it really hard to write, it's so much harder than stories!

I love Twelfth Night too- I went to see a production of it by the RSC a few months ago that was amazing, they set it in Morocco and stuck really close to the text. They had the box tree scene in a tree, and even added details like pretending to be a cat when Malvolio looked up!

Macbeth is really good too, although I wasn't very happy in my seminar on it a few weeks ago- I was the only one in my group of five who turned up so I had to present and teach two scnees on my own for 45 mintues, which was realy embarrasing and I'm rubbish at presentations anyway.
