A great way to hear many different interpretations

I own this on cassette, and hope that it will soon be released on CD. I play it almost every 3 months or so especially as I search for new audition monologues. It is a great way to hear various interpretations of speeches, snippets from some of the more less performed plays (Henry VIII and Coriolanus are two examples), and some of the theater's best actors in their finest roles.Highly recommend

The Best Shakespeare Anthology There Is

Over the years, I think I've tried every collection of Shakespeares's speeches available and this is by far the best. You have the best Shakepearean actors of all time (Olivier, Burton, etc) doing the greatest scenes. One of the major pluses (overlooked in most audio anthologies) is that the introductions are kept in the notes where they belong. There is no narrator interrupting the poetry with a background on each scene, just a pause. My only quibble (and it is minor) is the sound quality on some of the scenes taped during a stage performance. Also note: the audio cassette edition is complete, the CD is abridged.

colorful and imaginaltive

This book is a great over view of shakespeares work. The book has colorful pictures, and the book is writen in colligraphy. The colligraphy adds a touch of the olden days.
