Depending on the season, the character, the plot, the theme?

What?

>>7843806
Obviously best, worst and most underrated are subjective. So pick your favorite, least favorite and the one you think is most underrated.

Saw it performed in January. Totally changed my mind about it. If it seems tedious, over complicated and over the top it's cause Shakespeare ABSOLUTELY meant it to be. It's Shakespeare pastiching himself. For fuck's sake JUPITER KING OF THE GODS appears and the final scene is just the most ridiculous unravelling. It's really funny and actually enjoyable. Certainly way more interesting than the snoozefest that is All's Well

Coriolanus is probably more underrated.
>>
>Best
Hamlet
>Worst
The Winter's Tale
>Underrated
Othello
>>
>>7843947
How the shit is Othello REMOTELY underrated?
>>
>>7843876
What didn't you like about it

I tried to read The Tempest. The plot is really nice and well-developed, but I hate reading plays, so I didn't finish it

I might watch it someday though
