Such Tweet Sorrow tells of how the Royal Shakespeare Company is using Twitter in an innovative way to tell the story of Romeo and Juliet. I don’t know if it will convey the story in the same way, but I think more to the point, it introduces one of the great works of Shakespeare in an appealing way to those who may not know it. I am always supportive of such approaches, since I learned to love opera from watch Bugs Bunny sing parts of the Marriage of Figaro many many years ago. If others come to love Shakespeare through this, then hats off to the RSC.
