Shakespeare in Small Doses

Begin by downloading one of Shakespeare’s plays; then consider the options. Make reading easier by converting some dialogue into contemporary English or paraphrasing difficult Shakespearean wording. Change the story line. Switch the genders of some characters. Add a running commentary from the perspective of any character. Create one or more final speeches. The six plays offer examples of how a word processor can be used to make changes to Shakespeare’s works. The method used to make the changes is explained in detail. A set of step by step instructions is included.
