Sound like a grind? Listen to the peals of laughter bouncing off the classroom walls. Esquith's Shakespeare goes down like a strawberry milk shake, as textual analysis is interspersed with anecdotes ("Richard Burton once peed in his armor, and the tinkle made the other actors giggle!"). Students without speaking parts play music that would make old Will squirm: Aegeon's plea for a stay of execution is accompanied by the Beatles' Help!, and the pursuit of a portly servant is enlivened with Queen's Fat Bottomed Girls.

Bush and Gore, riding high on the backs of their party apparatuses and their victories in Iowa, came into the Granite State exuding the confidence of heirs apparent.
