hwp Our revels now are ended.
These our actors, as I foretold you...
... were all spirits
and are melted into air...
... into thin air.
And, like the baseless fabric
of this visi...
... the cloud-capp d towers...
... the gorgeous palaces...
... the solemn temples...
... the great globe itself...
... ye all which it inherit...
... shall dissolve...
... and, like this insubstantial pageant
faded...
... leave not a wisp behind.
We are such stuff
as dreams are made on...
... and our little life
is rounded with a sleep.
Whos gonna say, "Action"?
Should I say it, or should you?
- You wanna say it?
You can say it.
- I dont want to. Say it.
- You say it.
- And action!
- How do I look?
I cant see anything.
Are they out there?
This is my entrance.
Fuck.
Im actually reading Richard III...
...and I cant get on with it.
Ive been reading it for six months.
You want to do it
with your American accent?
Were getting $ a day
and all the doughnuts we can eat.
Shakespeare? What the fuck
do you know about Shakespeare?
Arise, fair sun...
...and kill the envious moon.
Like eager droppings into milk,
it doth posset and curd.
Some are born great,
some achieve greatness...
...and some have greatness
thrust upon them.
Intelligence is hooked with language.
When we speak with no feeling,
we get nothing out of our society.
We should speak like Shakespeare.
We should introduce Shakespeare
into the academics.
You know why? Because then
the kids would have feelings.
- Thats right.
- We have no feelings.
Thats why its easy for us
to shoot each other.
We dont feel for each other,
but if we were taught to feel...
...we wouldnt be so violent.
Shakespeare helps us?
He did more than help us.
He instructed us.
Hi. You gonna see the play tonight?
Youre gonna see it, huh?
Hello.
How much it cost?
Its for free.
- Okay, Im going.
- Okay.
- Thanks a lot.
- Your first Shakespeare play?
- Yeah.
- Itll be interesting. Give it a try.
- I saw Hamlet recently.
- How did you feel about it?
- Did you see it live? It what?
- It sucked.
- It what?
- It sucked. I saw it live.
- It sucked?
- Yeah.
Anything in Shakespeare that
made you think its not close to you...
- ...or connected to you in any way?
- Yeah, its boring.
A bank in England uses
Shakespeare as...
Cover my account number.
See, its a hologram.
They use it as ID to prove
its a real card.
What do you think of Shakespeare?
Hes a great export.
Whos moving in on Shakespeare?
The Japanese.
Because theyre kicking
the Americans ass.
And theyre all interested
in Shakespeare.
You know Shakespeare?
William Shakespeare?
Were peddling him on the streets.
I remember our English teacher
sent us to see...
...a local college production
of King Lear.
I went with my girlfriend...
...and after about minutes
of these people:
They were doing this kind
of Shakespearean acting.
I just tuned right out. We made out
in the back row and left at intermissi.
I was brought up in a school...
...where Shakespeare was taught
very kind of...
...straightforwardly and dully,
to be honest.
We read it aloud and it made no sense,
because there was no connection made.
My own experience...
...was in the fields in Michigan,
where I was raised on a farm...
...and an uncle, who was a Northern
guy, black Northern guy...
...came out of the field one day
and started narrating...
...Antonys speech, the funeral oration.
- From Shakespeares Julius Caesar?
- Yeah. Wed heard stuff from the Bible...
...but my first time as a kid,
I was hearing...
...great words having great meaning.
What brings us to Montreal?
To Paris? To London?
What takes us into dungeons,
to parapets...
- To Japan next.
- To Japan, maybe, is a quest.
It has always been a dream of mine...
... to communicate how I feel
about Shakespeare to other people.
So I asked my friend Frederic Kimball,
who is an actor and a writer...
... and also our colleagues
Michael Hadge...
... and James Bulleit, to join me.
And by taking this one play,
Richard III...
... analyzing it, approaching it
from different angles...
... putting on costumes,
playing out scenes...
... we could communicate
both our passi for it...
... our understanding
that weve come to...
... and in doing that...
... communicate a Shakespeare
that is about how we feel...
... and how we think today. Thats
the effort were gonna give it here.
Weve done Richard three times. Twice.
You did it at the Studio, weve done it
in Boston and on Broadway.
At least, the head start is that
Ive done it. Youve done it.
- But the problem, Frederic...
The audience hasnt done it.
- They havent done it.
- Its a difficult play.
If someone were to ask you
about Richard III...
...what would you remember about it?
To be honest, I really dont remember
that much, if anything at all.
Did you know that Richard III
had a deformed arm and a deformed back?
- No, I didnt.
- You didnt know that?
The play, Richard III,
about the guy with the humpback?
- No.
- You got me there.
Mm-mm.
He was a humpback? "A
horse. A horse. My kingdom for a horse"?
