Where do I start with him?

anywhere

Romeo & Juliet > Hamlet > Macbeth > Othello
>>8141375
Troilus and Cressida, obviously.
His best comedy by far. He is practically trolling the classical hero by reversing the characters. Akhilleus is a bastard. Hektor is chasing a fool night that makes fun of him. And as a bonus conversation topic, you can argue that by the slow reveal of the female character, it may have been written for female actor.

The tragedies, I'd say. Then move on to the comedies and maybe the histories if you can still handle more.
A Midsummer Night's Dream
ANNOTATED
Start with the new emoji versions of Hamlet, Macbeth, and King Lear. The original English is outdated.

Buy an edition of his complete works (Norton or the like).
Read everything (plays and sonnets).
Masturbate furiously.

Plus, Ulysses is one of his high-tier master of puppets.
Ideally, read Romeo and Juliet and Troilus and Cressida in extension of each other.
