Romeo & Juliet. And great as Hamlet is, I’ve got to vote for Much Ado.
(But really, how on earth did The Winter’s Tale end up in the final four???)
ACK! So upset Macbeth didn’t make it through! ?
Winter’s Tale
And whoa boy…now I don’t know. While I’m sad that Much Ado upset my own favorite, do I like it more than Hamlet? I’m not entirely sure…
Alright, I’m doing it- Much Ado!
The Winter’s Tale (though R&J is a miracle of construction, at this point I would rather see a great Winter’s Tale) / Hamlet
