Fellow Shakespearean peeps!

Can anyone recommend a good production of Measure for Measure?

eirene:

Mujer de blanco, 1880

Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta

bpdtomwambsgans:

i would kill for the confidence of novelists who write genius-poet characters and then actually write samples of the “genius” poetry in the book. if i were a novelist writing a genius-poet i’d just be like “trust me, the poetry’s real good.”

grendelsmilf:

nothing, my lord

I mean, it’s not the same phrasing, but I cannot help but remembering Leontes’ rant around the idea of nothingness in Winter’s Tale:

LEONTES

Is whispering nothing?
Is leaning cheek to cheek? is meeting noses?
Kissing with inside lip? stopping the career
Of laughing with a sigh?–a note infallible
Of breaking honesty–horsing foot on foot?
Skulking in corners? wishing clocks more swift?
Hours, minutes? noon, midnight? and all eyes
Blind with the pin and web but theirs, theirs only,
That would unseen be wicked? is this nothing?
Why, then the world and all that’s in’t is nothing;
The covering sky is nothing; Bohemia nothing;
My wife is nothing; nor nothing have these nothings,
If this be nothing.

Talk about loaded words.
