Yes, was in The One Day of the Year in first year uni. (Putting it on was my idea and I organised everything, co-opted fellow students, and we practiced a lot - only to have one stuff up in our lines on the night - and I played a male character, 'Whacka'. Was in musicals at school before that (The Pirates of Penzance and Oklahoma) and before that wrote my own plays and co--opted my fellow students to act in it, culminating with being asked to put the play on for the Grade I kids :)

Hmmm...have no idea. Too many to choose from.

Ummm...sadly, probably not. Although I did go to a local play...probably more than ten years ago, now that I think of it :P

Do I have to? The only two I am really familiar with are The Merchant of Venice and Macbeth. I'll choose Macbeth, although I love Shylock's soliloquy 'If you prick us do we not bleed?' :) I think Hamlet may have been Shakespeare's greatest play.
