what i tend to research?

I am going to research information about william shakespeares background which i would be looking books and using the internet.

Also as my questions is are the stroylines from William Shakepeare's plays still relevant in morden society? i will be looking at films or plays that have been recently been produced that are based on William Shakespeares play such as Romeo and juliet the Baz Luhrmann version. She's a man based on Twelth Night, Forbidden Planet based on The Tempest, 10 Things i hate about you based on The taming of the shrew, and a recent film just been produced Seven Pounds based on The Merchant Of Venice.

Some internet sites i will be looking at would be searching on google websites other than wikipedia. however i will be using wikipedia and show how unrealable it is. Websites i will be using for my research to get the theatre reviews are www.guardian.co.uk/stage and Www.absoluteshakepeare.com.

For my research i will be looking at books such as AQA drama and theatre studies revision book. The complete works of William Shakespeare. Essential Shakespeare Handbook- a portrait of Shakespeare’s life. Full commentaries on all 39 plays. Gain an insight into Shakespeare’s unique world.

My name is Stephanie Simms, at the beacon school and for my extended project i am looking at 'Are the storylines from William Shakespeare's plays still relevant in modern society?'
i choose to do this topic, because i am doing drama for A level and i would like to be an actoress when i leave school. and go into film. to me Shakepeare is an important part in our history, i enjoyed studing his plays in year 9 and at gcse.
