samsawazki 's review for:

Anthony and Cleopatra by William Shakespeare

3.0

---

I’ve seen many reviews that laud the way this play made characters seem realistic while having opposing traits, such as clever and foolish. But I can’t for the life of me figure out why Cleopatra would fall in love with the useless dummy that Shakespeare wrote Antony to be… That simple problem made it impossible for me to even wonder at her true feelings, a major draw of the play.
