Thank you! *smile* Am rather pleased to have finally finished them all... plus there is an added bonus, which I noticed in seeing the last few plays. When one is close to completing the canon, one starts to notice lots of parallels between the different works, which is kinda nifty!
Also, a good question about which plays I have seen most frequently. Right now, the record is held by Henry V (7 times), with Richard III as the runner-up (6 times). Honourable mention goes to The Tempest and Twelfth Night (5 times each). *grin*
Thirty-six of the plays are in the 1623 First Folio, with Pericles and The Two Noble Kinsmen rounding out the total to thirty-eight. By an odd coincidence, we have seen professional productions of all thirty-six First Folio plays... but, thus far, only amateur productions of the other two. The quality varied, as the Kinsmen was somewhat disappointing, but the student production of Pericles that we saw last month was surprisingly good. In time, of course, we will see professional productions of those two, also.
