Subject: 	Shakespeare Reworked

Dear Shaksper Members,

For a number of years I have been engaged in re-working Shakespeare's 
plays into modern English whilst retaining the rhyme and rhythm of the 
original.  Whilst I fully realise that to some the very idea of 
undertaking such a venture is anathema, there may be others who might be 
interested in seeing the result.

Now I have completed almost all of the plays - including one from the 
apocrypha - I have decided, for a limited time and depending on numbers 
interested, to subject one of my reworkings to peer review.

If you would like to read and are prepared to give me some feedback on 
my reworked version of 'Romeo and Juliet', please send me an e-mail to:
