Shakespearean Three Little Pigs

[euphrasyne]

I like reading older works of literature.   Epic of Gilgamesh,  The Tale of Genji, The Illiad, Beowulf, Shakespeare, etc.   The changes in language of the day fascinate me in various translations.   One of my pet peeves is from Romeo and Juliet.   "Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo Montague?"   She is NOT asking where he is.  She is asking why he is a Montague.   

 

Along those lines, there is a comedian who does the 3 Little Pigs in Shakespeare.  It is about 10 minutes long, but completely worth it.  I made all my kids listen to it.

Funny stuff. Wonder how he remembered all of that.

I never knew that! You are just a wealth of knowledge!

I've seen him do the story in various venues and different clips and it always remains almost identical.  He is very talented.
