I only live about an hour's drive away from Stratford-on-Avon, so I always go and see the plays that the Royal Shakespeare Company put on each summer reason; they normally do four different plays each year, and show them in rotation. Seeing Shakespeare live - and performed well - is a completely different experience from reading it!
