Would anyone be interested in a challenge to read Shakespeare's non-popular plays?
Here's the idea: read one play per month (since some of us want to have something resembling a life), reading the histories in order but spacing them out with a comedy & tragedy. It will start in December because that's when the original CS school year challenge ends.
There would be no obligation to stick with them all nor read any particular edition, other than unabrigded. The other Shakespeare groups don't seem to be very active, so I figured I would see if people here are interested.
(Plays not included: Comedy of Errors, Taming of the Shrew, Midsummer's Night Dream, Merchant of Venice, Much Ado About Nothing, Twelfth Night, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth)
