Description

Listen.... we know that William Shakespeare was English.  We know that the English have performed Shakespeare plays WAAAAAAY more than Americans, simply because they've been around longer!!!  And there are many, many British actors and directors and productions of Shakespeare that we just LOOOOOOVE.That being said... we have heard that "Americans can't do Shakespeare like the English."We take umbrage to that statement, but we decided to ask two wonderful guests their opinions!!Harper Annette York and Amelia White, both incredible theatre artists who were born in England and moved to the United States, join us to discuss this topic.Episode Sources:Years and years of experience with Shakespeare from four rather opinionated theatre professionals, you dicks!!!!  And cunts.
