I've read the favourite poems thread with great pleasure and was wondering what everyone's favourite plays were.
Do you prefer to read or watch, or does it depend on the author for you?
I'm a Samuel Beckett girl, with lots of love for Tom Stoppard. I do prefer to read plays rather than see them though, as scenic wobbliness and clunkiness distress me a bit.
I quite like rude and/or silly plays too, from Aeschylus to Feydeau and beyond.
