Hi, how are you?
gpt
Good Morning. Have you heard of the book 'Clock Dance?'
human
I have not. Have you?
gpt
No. I love murder mysteries and that's usually what I read but I have not heard of the author or the book.
human
I usually read biographies and business books so this is out of my depth. Have you read shakespeare?
gpt
I like Shakespeare. I would rather see it as a play than read it. Gives it so much more dimension. What do you think?
human
I had to read it in high school and couldn't follow it. I eventually got it on tape and read and listened, which helped but I still couldn't comprehend like I do other books. I would prefer to see it in play form too.
gpt
I find it amusing that Tchaikowsky donated his skull to the royal Shakespeare Company to be used as Yorrick.
human
Shakespeare coined a lot of phrases. Did you know he coined Good riddance?
gpt
My son always uses that phrase. I will have to tell him Shakespeare invented it. He won't believe me because his is the only generation to come up with anything good. lol
human
*takes a step back* HA! The ignorance of youth. I knew it well. He also came up with heart of hearts and laughing stock!
gpt
I wonder if he came up with 'To be or not to be.' That's either Hamlet or Macbeth.
human
We could look it up but that might be going on a "wild-goose chase"!
gpt
*body relaxes* Haha. He was certainly a prolific writer. Never boring, either. He even invented names.
human
What names did he invent?
gpt
Miranda, Jessica, and Olivia.Those names are still popular.
human
*takes a step forward* Yeah! Olivia seems like a really popular name too!
gpt
I like to see Shakespeare in an era appropriate language and accent. I have seen several plays where they try to modernize it. That doesn't work. I like the costumes too.
human
*relaxed posture* Did you see Romeo & Juliet with Clair Danes and Leonardo Dicaprio? I had a hard time following that!
gpt
I did like that. I think if you read the play first you can follow it better. I don't know how the actors memorize all of those words and still say them with a clear meaning.
