Let's take a moment and think about all things Shakespeare. Anyone who's ever read or seen a play, watched a movie, quoted a famous line, or just enjoyed an introspective moment caused by the simple act of being entertained can thank William Shakespeare and others like him. We've all been touched at one time by the writing or acting of another. We've been thrilled by the thought that someone out there feels the same way we feel, thinks as we think, and views the world in just the same manner.

On this page we the Band of Brothers would like to share our thoughts. We will ask that members of the Band write articles, post links, share games or just random thoughts about Shakespeare, acting, poetry, literature or anything that crosses our minds about our craft. We would like to get things started with an article by our founder and Artistic Director, Laura Gordon. We also have a little quiz to test your Shakespearean knowledge. The answers will appear at the bottom of this page so try not to cheat. This especially goes for the actors! After you've taken the quiz, click the link for our Elizabethan insults, mix and match and come up with a brand new way to tell someone off. And please feel free to send us links, games, trivia or anything of interest to fellow Shakespeare lovers. Enjoy!
