So I have probably mentioned these in some other Shakespeare posts, but I decided to give it its own. -listen to it or read it aloud. If you have audible or Libravox It’s not hard to get Shakespeare books, or have someone read it with you, and take turns reading it. I’ve been to a get together where a bunch of girls sat around, chose a part and read aloud basically a play reading. And Shakespeare can be super fun!
-Read it slowly, don’t rush through, reading is never a race.
-Enjoy it, reading should be fun, not annoying,
-If your new to Shakespeare, start with a comedy, midsummer nights dream or twelfth night,
-Watch the names, there are a lot of names repeated in the different plays, so don’t let it confuzzle you. Make a name chart if you have too, who is who, how are they related. Etc.
I hope these make it easier to read, understand and enjoy Shakespeare!
