could somehow be outfitted with annotations and footnotes, to help you
understand what’s going on at every moment, there’s a much easier
(and more enjoyable) alternative. Just sit in the audience while the <a
href="http://www.ohioshakespeare.com">Ohio Shakespeare Festival</a> is
performing. As supervised by artistic director Terry Burgler, each OSF
outing is a marvel of clarity and precision, rendering even the most obtuse
digressions by Will suddenly comprehensible. The result is a kind of euphoric
time travel in which one feels transported back 400 years to the Globe Theatre,
relishing all of the bard’s words with immediate glee just as his
audiences did then.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
