I suppose I'm cheating a bit, but I figure I'll do three days today - it will encompass Saturday, Sunday and Today. That seems logical, yes? Besides, it seems right to just lump these three questions together:

Day #8: Your favorite comedy
I'm going to go with The Tempest, even though it's technically a 'romance'. It's one of those plays that can be as serious or as funny as the director and actors decide, and if one plays up the funny, it is hysterical. And I speak from experience, because we just did this, and we got lots of laughs.

Day #9: Your favorite tragedy
I'm tempted to say King Lear; but I seem to have talked at great length already about this, so I think I will go with Hamlet. Yes, I realise it's sort of an obvious choice, but, let's face it, it is pretty much flawless, as far as tragedy goes. And has some of the most quoted lines in the history of the world.

Day #10: Your favorite history
Um...I have to say Henry V, simply because I love the Crispian day speech so very much. I love the whole 'inspiring leader' thing. And the English lesson scene is really funny.
