I don’t think it would work, but I’ve always wondered about Rosencrantz and Guildenstern...

Good one!

You are unintentionally aiding the homosexualagenda when you make jokes like this. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern were childhood friends sent to get Hamlet killed, he outwits them, and they are killed instead. There is nothing indicated even a hint that something was gay. As a matter of fact, Shakespeare's plays are remarkable for the fact that there are no gay characters or references. I know that shirtlifting was supposedly frowned upon at that time. But Shakespeare was the master of the innuendo. And since 10% of our society is gay, and Shakespeare was probably a liberal (for his day) one would think that the gay references would be all over the place. But they aren't.

Actually I’m quite intentionally laughing at them. The same has been said in the “new” criticism about Mercutio and Romeo as well.

Between crap like this and coddling the Muhammadians I fear for the UK more and more each day.

"I seem to remember that in Shakespearean times, boys would play girls and girls would play boys and the whole point was trying work out which was which.

Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
Its a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola...

This song from “Making Movies” seems more appropriate:

Les boys do cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay
They’re not afraid now
Disco bar in Germany
Les boys are glad to be
Upon parade now

Les boys got leather straps
Les boys got SS caps
But they got no gun now
Get dressed up get a little risqué
Got to do a little s & m these days
It’s all in fun now

Les boys come on again
For the high class whores
And the businessmen
Who drive in their Mercedes Benz
To a disco bar in old Munchen

They get the jokes that the D.J. makes
They get nervous and they make mistakes
They’re bad for business
Some tourists take a photograph
Les boys don’t get one laugh
He says they’re useless

Late at night when they’ve gone away
Les boys dream of Jean Genet
High heel shoes and a black beret
And the posters on the wall that say
Les boys do cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay

Juliet: "Oh Romeo, whilst though affix thy lips to my nether root, and while away thy suicidal sores of pestilent buggery?"

I think I just threw up ... internally.  =)

Yeah, you don't want to know where that ring's been, either.

Sorry. These gay power iconoclasts make be angry.

***...and the whole point was trying work out which was which.***

THAT was the whole point of Shakespeare? Drat! They kept telling us in school that there was a deep meaning to each of his plays. Boy, did they waste our time in school.

Tell me about it. They are pushing their sickening agenda on our kids every day. This should be child abuse.

The version was praised by actor Sir Ian McKellen when he saw it last month...

The balrog should have won.

10%? You’re kidding, right?

That’s been debunked and even admitted as a lie by homosexual activists for years.

[DLfromthedesert]

I wonder if they plan to put this play on in Londonistan.

10%? You’re kidding, right?

I was playing by liberal rules to make my point. In reality, no one really knows, for obvious reasons. However, the the accepted figure is usually between 1 and 3 per cent of the total population is gay, with 75-80% of all homosexuals being male.

Is that better?

[little jeremiah]

Sorry if was harsh; too many debates on the topic!

[presidio9]

Would have thought you knew me better than that by now.
