Three films, all alike in dignity,
In fair high schools, where we lay our scene,
From Elizabethan stages to modern screens
Fine Shakespeare works remade for teens.
What makes these teen movies a cut above the rest? Could it be...The Bard? True to Shakespeare’s legacy of creating theatre for the masses, his works have continued to inspire iconic adaptations and resonate with a modern audience. Tales of star-crossed lovers, cross dressing, and shrewish heroines reimagined with 90s heart throbs, senior proms, and pop soundtracks.
For bonified bardolators and Amanda Bynes fans alike, ring in the school year by brushing up on Shakespeare, Sorta.
