Shakespeare in popular culture
Gargoyles
Susan and Mary‘s genetically altered mouse is named after Romeo’s family
The lion King is based on Hamlet
A Sonnet from Adriana
I'm new here because I wanted an outlet for this sonnet I wrote from Adriana's perspective (from The Comedy of Errors) since I know maybe one person who actually appreciates Shakespeare's genius. I have no idea if anyone will actually end up seeing this but I hope you enjoy!
My husband’s eyes are just what I expect
His figure does remain that of my mate
But still I must recall last time I checked
He didn’t want my sister for his date
His servant Dromio appears the same
His bruises evident for all to see
But suddenly it seems the mighty flame
’Twixt him and Nell has gotten lost at sea
I fear my man and his have gone insane
Since all the town has come to see my dear
In jail for the stealing of a chain
Oh how my love continues acting queer!
But wait it se…
this wiki is dead
I love how I am the only active user on this wiki, Angus is the only character that matters in Shakespeare but I fear that I have written all I can on him, so I may have to start branching out to other characters, maybe Lennox or Caithness. The rest of Shakespeare wiki can be non-existent for all I care, at least till I am satisfied with Macbeth.
Eve Karpf
Eve Karpf is a British actress. In my eyes, she would be a good actress to play Lady Macbeth, at least in my version, and she would do her impression of Zoe Wammaker, who voiced the character in the Shakespeare’s Animated Tales version of the play, she also played Madame Hooch in Harry Potter and Karpf voiced her in the video games, so that’s why I think she would be good for the role.

Let's Talk About Macbeth
Hi, user Ladymacbeths here. What do you think about why Lady Macbeth and Macbeth did not think to kill Malcolm & Donalbain? They were in line for the throne, to Macbeth's complete knowledge. Even with Duncan dead, there would be no stopping of Malcolm taking the throne. Lady Macbeth (in my opinion) is way too smart to overlook such a detail.
Hello, out there!
Hey everybody. (If there is anybody here xD) I just wanted to introduce myself to the wiki. I am Avalair, I am an active editor and Chat Moderator at The LEGO Message Boards Wiki and I am a fan of Shakespeare's works. Offline, I am even part of a drama club that preforms Shakespearean plays! I stumbled upon this wiki and noticed that it needed some care. I also noticed that the only admin has not been here in quite a few years. :/ I have been editing and creating pages for the last couple of days and I will be putting an adoption request up at the end of the week because I think I could do a good job at fixing this place up again. If you noticed, I put some delete tags on a few pages because we seem to have had some vandals. When/if I get…

Heys my fellow Bibliophiles! ...Okay, I'm not so great the 'reading all the things' but my friend James is.
He... well... Basically he just never stops. Anyway, he keeps a vlog for Felecia Day's Geek and Sundry where he suggests books based on things you already know and love!
He's done a Vlog specifically about Shakespeare) (But mostly Romeo and Juliete... ...hey, look! An author interview!!!)
Radtastic, right?! He likes attention so, y'know, give 'm some. ...and Read This!
What do you think?
- I am an actress and I recently got the part of Ophelia. But it's one of those playing with plays. I performed on December 2nd and am trying out for Juliet in Romeo and Juliet. This is also a playing with plays version. Do you think playing with plays gets through to everybody the real art of Shakespeare?
- I also write plays and movies for my class to see. When I went to my library I asked if they had any Shakespeare books and they said no. I then asked if they had any plays. They said no. It says on the wall that they have them, but they don't. I was bummed and decided that I was going to buy books for them that are plays and Shakespeare. What do you think?
