What was Shakespeare's attitude?

This is a difficult question. It's very like asking about Shakespeare's personality, about which we know nothing. Did Shakespeare reveal his personal views in his plays? Certainly not. We cannot conclude that Shakespeare was a vampire because he has Hamlet say, "Now I could drink hot blood". The fact that Shakespeare was able to create such a broad variety of plausible characters does show that he had tolerance of and empathy for all kinds of different people.


What you think about Shakespeare's audience?

I think they were very lucky. They got a chance to see the premieres of all of Shakespeare's plays, without any preconceptions about them. Nowadays any production of Hamlet is carrying 400 years of Hamlets on its back. Also, the audiences would have been able to see Shakespeare himself acting in the plays. How cool would that be?


How do you speak to a ghost?

In order to talk to a ghost you have to be able to hear them. I guess you can talk to one without being able to hear it, the hgost can give you signs but then you can only ask yes or no questions maybe a little more. When you talk to a ghost remember that the ghost was maybe a human before so talk to them like they are, strat with hi and ask thier name.

What role did Shakespeare most enjoy playing in his own play?

We do not know anything about what Shakespeare enjoyed or didn't enjoy. He left no records of his personal opinions. However, we can say something about what roles he played. In 1610, a Mr. John Davies, writing a congratulatory poem to Shakespeare said he "played some kingly parts". One hundred years later, Shakespeare's first biographer Nicholas Rowe tells an anecdote that Shakespeare played the part of the ghost in Hamlet. As dubious as many of Rowe's stories may be, this corresponds with what Davies had to say, and so is believable. Certainly Shakespeare, with his prematurely bald head, must have been able to successfully play older men. Other roles that people think Shakespeare may have played are Adam in As You Like It and King Henry in the Henry IV plays.

How do you differentiate a psychic and a medium?

A psychic is able to work out a person's character, or give advice or give predictions about the future, using their psychic sense, their third eye, sometimes with the aid of a prop such as the Tarot cards or crystal ball, where a medium senses things from the "other side" such as smelling perfume left by a ghost, or hearing a ghost speak to them, or able to see a ghost.
