Day #12: Your favorite scene

Can anyone really narrow this down? I don't know. So many moments in Shakespeare take my breath away when done right, but that self-same scene can leave me cold when in the hands of someone who doesn't 'get' it. *coughclairedainescough*

I really enjoyed acting the seduction scene in Richard III. I'd also done Kate in Taming, and one of the things that struck me was how alike the wooing scene in that show was to the one in Richard, just in terms of the woman successfully laying the verbal smack-down on the guy, who continued to be charming to the last, and, ultimately, wins. Taming it is played for over the top laughs, Richard, it's disturbing.

In short, I have no real way of answering this question.
