The Top 10: My Shakespeare

During my trip to NYC, I contemplated which Shakespearean roles I would most want to play. This is assuming I could actually not butcher iambic pentameter. Here's the top 10, in rough order:

• Portia (Merchant of Venice- hands down, the absolute best role Will ever wrote for women...even though women didn't originally play her)
• Puck (Midsummer Night's Dream)
• Beatrice (Much Ado About Nothing)
• Rosalind (As You Like It)
  
• Kate (Taming of the Shrew)
• Iago (Othello- wouldn't that be fascinating?)
• Lady Macbeth (Macbeth)
• Nurse (Romeo and Juliet)
• Olivia (Twelfth Night)
  

and not quite sure about this one, but we'll throw it in...

• Tamora (Titus Andronicus-- maybe? Not sure about that one...but maybe...)
