MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I'm being dragged along to see this tonight. Its supposed to be a very good production, but I'm not a big Shakespeare fan. So what I'm after is a very short plot summary - lets say no more than 20 words - so I have a rough idea whats going on. No links to wikipedia please - I've been there and its far too long 😐
You hates me 'cos I is black.
So I gonna getcha back, honky!
black man married to beautiful and cultured white woman. Is a bit insecure about it. "Best" friend jealous, spreads rumour she is having an affair. Man falls for it. In fit of jealousy kills wife. Realises error. commits suicide.
over the 20 word limit, but thank you all the same mrs f
moses: was shakespeare first to coin the word 'honky' then?
I think back then it was spelt "honkye"
Sorry, my reduced shakespear not reduced enough!
Is it the one at the wyp with Lenny Henry you're seeing?
indeed it is
let me know what you think, am quite interested.
I saw this recently and really enjoyed it. It took a few minutes to stop waiting for Lenny Henry to be funny but I thought he was good in it. Iago does go on a bit in the first half, in these long monologues, and I found him the least easy actor to understand. The second half was really entertaining though, so overall worth seeing.
