THE news that a replica Shakespearean theatre could be built on the Castle car park comes after the long-running saga surrounding Clifford’s Tower and the removal of the ice rink from outside the courts.
It would appear The Tempest and A Comedy Of Errors was Much Ado About Nothing and may result in As You Like It, providing it is not only A Winter’s Tale.
However, beware the curse following Macbeth for those playing the lead role, with plans to upgrade the River Foss, The Merchant Of Venice may bring precious cargo and tourists along its waterways, or is this only A Midsummer Night’s Dream?
Politically, Love’s Labour’s Lost could be an epitaph.
In conjunction with the repairs to Monk Bar portcullis, may I be considered for the role of Richard III, even though my parents were Lancastrian?
On a closing note, All’s Well That Ends Well when it comes to Measure For Measure.
