Hmmm.... You mean the wonderful 1920s?

Where large industry was totally unregulated, pollution was through the roof, workers had no rights and deadly workplace accidents were the daily norm?

Where anyone who tried to improve or protest those conditions was accused of being a communist and arrested, maimed or openly killed by the police?

The world which just emerged from a war that killed more people in a week than the whole Ukraine conflict and was heading into the largest financial crisis recorded, which would in turn give rise to another such war?

Yeah, I'd totally love to live in those times!

I'll be honest, I am not a huge fan of reading Shakespeare. The plays are a great experience when you watch them but I always find reading them tiresome. It's like reading the script for avengers endgame rather than watching the movie.

So my advice would be to try watch them instead. Either online or you can try to find something like National Theatre Live in your local cinemas.
