The Importance of Shakespeare's Language

I have a hard time with the language when I've tried to approach it myself. Ian McCallon actually sat there and did Shakespeare at me and it, and it,. and it, I absorbed it. And therefore without my hamlet, I would not have been seen by the Attenborough family. The first thing Hamlet says when he walks onto the stage is "Oh, cursed spite that ever I was born" So my feelings of inadequacy as I walked onto the arena to portray the Prince of Denmark were completely echoed in my first lines because he worked with his actors.
