Okay, so I've never read this play, but I've heard so much about it. Would anyone like to read (or reread) this play with me and discuss it online? I heard it has an obsessed nun in it, so it should be good!

Pardon me. I seem to have misplaced some princes.

Sure, I love Measure for Measure, but I'll have to take it slow. Not much time right now. Maybe a scene a night? Anyone else interested? I know we have a lot of Measure for Measure fans on the board.

Count me in. I may not be able to post all that often but I'll try to keep up with the schedule. A date when to start?

Sorry for not getting back to this sooner. Ganymede and I just started new jobs, which has been time consuming for the past week.
How's starting Sunday (11/24) for everyone?

Thanks!
So how are we all doing with our reading? We should be on Act One, Scene Three for today. I'd post a comment or two but I'm feeling a bit brain dead at the moment, so feel free to start a discussion or two in the play section and I'll be happy to join in.
