This is a great idea. Another thing could be to give interpretations along lines. All the way from Ben Jonson, Dr Johnson, Hazlitt, Coleridge etc to TS Eliot, AC Bradley, LC Knights, Prosser, Barker etc to more contemporary interpretations like Harold Bloom, Peter Hall etc (sorry I fell out of touch about 20 years ago). I learned my Shakespeare through BBC audio cassettes: Ronald Pickup as Hamlet, Alec Guiness as Lear, Ken Scott as Macbeth etc. I knew these plays by heart by the time I turned 20, the power of multimedia. If I had stayed in touch, I would be definitely in a position to produce a multimedia electronic critical edition of his works with a timeline of critical interpretations. Possibilities are endless and endlessly exciting! Really wish I could go back to those heady days of literary madness and this time stay in touch with Shakespeare for the rest of my days.
