I wonder how his writings will compare to the longevity of the Bard?
Now, does that qualify him for suggesting the educational curriculum? - I think not!Before becoming a full-time writer Mr Taylor was a police officer, motorcyclist and former rock band roadie turned Anglican vicar
Years ago, I recall the old beautiful stories from Charles Lamb's Tales from Shakespeare, which is designed for small children.
Suitable plays/stories for children can be adapted, such as: As You Like It, Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo & Juliet, Comedy of Errors, Henry IV, Twelfth Night, The Tempest, Pericles. Non of these plays are really violent.
All the History plays are good for slighty older children. I came into Shakespeare in my late 30's and loved all of the History plays.
So this man Taylor is talking rubbish, he shoud keep his trap shut.

Most people I know in Stratford avoid any kind of Shakespeare celebration like the plague~ http://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/...-street-party/

Sadly Lex, it will happen. People are fixated by the little God of money and will do everything to wring the last penny out of a situation.
I'm not religious in any way, but I do sometimes wonder if by abandoning religion our society has lost something?
Could be, but I've always had a feeling that the Church (of all colours) is more about power & money than God (eg all those letters written in defence of the former bishop of Golucester that was reported in the news this morning).
