6 November 2011 - Shakespeare

You know how sometimes a thought is on the tip of your tongue and your ideas exchange meaningful glances but can’t express themselves? That never happened to Shakespeare; while scribbling Falstaff his ideas chattered among themselves like the Bloomsbury group. With that level of talent, we can only imagine how the Bard would have progressed if he’d been taught in modern workshops and honed his craft under the discipline of stringent editors. Perhaps he could have been brought down to an acceptable standard?
