This is a big year for Shakespeare - a worldwide celebration, honoring the Bard on the 400th anniversary of his death, April 23, 1616.
For those who love his work, it might be a time to reread one's favorite plays: in my case, King Lear, Antony and Cleopatra, Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Henry IV Parts One and Two, and Measure for Measure. But for those who have yet to read him, or who haven't read him since they were forced to read Julius Caesar in high school, now's the time.
