A review by mayajoelle
Measure for Measure by William Shakespeare
4.0
I really didn't like this when I read it, but after seeing it performed live, I do. Even though the performing company made some questionable casting choices. So, this confirms my belief that Shakespeare simply must be seen (or at least read aloud) to be understood. I will need to reread it someday to actually have substantive thoughts about its language and structure, but I appreciated the questions it is asking (about faithfulness, love, vows, sin, equality) as portrayed onstage very much. I don't like the ending, but I am not sure if I am meant to.
