I only got The Scottish Play, we only did plays for three years (though I dropped English in my final year so only got two) and the other was the non-shake that spear The Royal Hunt of the Sun
My sister did more, they did one every year. I know she did King Lear, and The Mechant of Venice, though not sure her other three. (I think they were Julius Ceaser, Hamlet and Midnight Summer's, but I could very easily be wrong since we're talking 23 years ago.)

This is probably a good occasion to say that I think anyone will find something to like in some play of Shakespeare's. I'm slowly trying to see all of them performed live, and so far I've got about half under my belt.

Oh, I knew what play you meant--A Midsummer Night's Dream; everyone gets that wrong--but it was still funny to me.

My reccollection is that there was also a dedication plaque that included the words "New World" or "New Order" which supposedly seals the fact that this is an NWO facility. This then equates it to concentration camp.
My greatest memory of Denver Airport was the spanking new luggage handling system that just could not seem to move luggage from one point to another properly. The computerized routing system had a lot of bugs in it.

There is a reef on the coast of Queensland shaped like a heart; indeed it is called Heart Reef and Japanese tourists pay a lot of money to be married over it (apparently good luck). A small lake just north of my town is called Rabbit Lake. Supposedly it looks like a rabbit from the air but I've seen it from that angle and it only looks like a bunny it that bunny was road kill. Now to Shakespeare, our first play in high school was Twelfth Night. The teacher said he had a choice of King Lear , which was reccommended by the province, or Twelfth Night. He chose 12th Night because he figured that even if he had to explain the jokes that students would better enjoy a comedy and be more willing the next year to read MacBeth. So we read 12th Night, MacBeth (the same teacher taught that one and refused to call it "The Scottish Play"), and Hamlet
