Best Answer

The Prince of Morocco episode is indeed split between Act II Scene I and Act II Scene VII. It is hard to know why this should be so unless it was Shakespeare's intention to keep all the plot lines in the audience's mind, and if the Morocco scene were all in one, there would be too long a space between scenes in the Portia Marriage Lottery plotline.

Who was Shakespeare's first patron the person who made sure that Shakespeare had enough money to support himself and write?

Henry Wriothesley, First Earl of Southampton, is named in the dedication of Venus and Adonis, Shakespeare's first printed work. However that does not mean that Southampton actually paid Shakespeare's bills. He may have only fronted the cost of publishing the poem. The poem itself sold well (it was soft porn, always a popular choice) and must have made a fair amount of money for Shakespeare in a year when actors in general were starving. Whether it made enough for him to live on and save the cost of becoming a partner in a theatre company is anyone's guess; if it didn't, Southampton may have made up the difference.


What do people think of Shakespeare plays?

They continue to be very popular with audiences all over the world, as witness the continual stream of movies of the plays and choice by professional and amateur theatre companies to present them. Actors enjoy the richness of the characters and the dialogue. Academics find them to be a motherlode of academic questions. There are those who do not enjoy Shakespeare's work, as there have always been. There are also a number who don't think they like Shakespeare's plays, but who have never actually seen one performed, and so have no basis for judging. Also, I think that people liked the change in the classic "Happily Ever After" ending that Shakespeare expressed in his plays.
