The show is based on Hank’s book The Monument — a complete edition of the Sonnets — and dramatizes the “living record” that the author intended to preserve within this “monument” of verse for posterity.

Check out “The Monument” website and also a site that was originally put up in for the show, which Hank performed more recently at Rockland Community College in Suffern, NY.

Performed at venues across the U.S. and in England at Shakespeare’s Globe and Cambridge University.

“A ripping tale of murder, treason, hangings, bastardy, love, betrayal and danger … and one of those Big Thoughts that, if you embrace it, seems to clear up a lot of mystery.” – Bill Varble, The Mail Tribune, Medford Oregon (where Hank performed the show on the campus of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival)

“I don’t quite know how to articulate just how inspiring your presentation was. You altered my whole perception of Shakespeare … It’s such a wonderful puzzle that challenges not only how we approach Shakespeare’s work, but theatre and history in general … You reminded us of just how important it is to consider the whole picture … The story you told onstage captivated me till the very end, at which I stood up immediately to honor your remarkable performance.” – Excerpts of letters from students at Flathead Valley Community College, Kalispell, Montana

  4. I would give my half arm if I’d be starring somewhere in my life 🙂

    • You are starring right here, as well as at your home!

  5. Its time people began working together. There needs to be a compilation of the best anti Strat “hard evidence”. Work from the outside in. Diana Price has a great rebuttal to Well’s book on her site. Her essay on CEO’s of acting companies names on theater lists in the Tennessee Law Review is one of the most important pieces of scholarship done on a long misunderstood document. The Brief Chronicles essay on Wills is first rate. Stritmatter and Kositsky on the Tempest. Others. Take the best. Put them in a volume. No speculation. Go from outside in. Tighten the noose.

    They have no answer.

    • Constantly bring these up in conferences and presentations.
      Then present the reasons for Oxford.

      • Ken, you yourself are one of the most knowledgeable, insightful and persuasive commentators on this issue. Perhaps you will find some angle, some avenue of perception, that will inspire you to paint a verbal picture for the world. I know of no one better qualified.
