My own long-ago experience with Shakespeare was similar to this. It was not high school that awakened my interest, it was the works of Ngaio Marsh, especially
Light Thickens. Her love of theatre and Shakespeare, including using many references as titles, prompted me to buy his complete works not long after finishing hers.
