Recently I picked up a box of vintage books.. more specifically, Shakespheare's plays! They look to be printed from the 70's, 80's, or so.
The one that peaks my interest is Macbeth, mostly because [REDACTED].. I really wish I was a theatre kid sometimes, but I cannot synchronize with people for the life of me..
It maybe considered foolish to venture into something blind, but is it worth learning and reading Shakespheare? What good does it do for me ? Time spent reading, analysing, and studying Shakespheare could be used for doing more productive things - that if I ever wanted to waste time, I could instead consume more relevant media so that I can connect "meaningfully" with my peers.
I want to investigate the character archetypes in these plays; more specifically the weyward sisters or 'the three witches', see if it can inspire me for more art or writing.
