Just asking because it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm bored/curious. I'm personally quite fond of "A Midsummer Night's Dream," "The Tempest," and "The Winter's Tale."

I am personally fond of Midsummer Night's Dream. Of course, dear ol' Wm.S. used "fond" in quite a different way.
I recently stumbled across a nifty adaptation of the play in the form of an online graphic novel. Unfortunately, only the most recent 30 days are kept online -- but you might enjoy checking this out:

A Midsummer Night's Dream.
I alway thought that love triangles were entertaining.

Richard III (best villian protagonist ever written, at least to my memory right now.)
Macbeth (mainly for the Gunpowder Plot allusions and the cloak and dagger history behind it.)
King Lear (perfect tragedy.)
Much Ado About Nothing (Shakespeare's smartest play and, in Beatrice, probably his strongest female role.)

Much Ado About Nothing- The comical interplay between enemies, Beatrice and Benedict, as they discover they are in fact in love is woven perfectly with the stories involving Hero and Claudius and the Prince.

KING LEAR - It has been said that, "it is a play with Hell but no heaven." And it has the greatest insult and curses in it. At one point King Lear says to his daughter, "May your organs of increase shrivel up." Harsh I know but great writing.

I have never really gotten into the plays, although I have seen one and enjoyed it. It was, "Much Ado About Nothing" I believe. I'd probably be more into it, if I understood the literature. i.e. words, phrases.

Hamlet and Macbeth are my faves to read myself.
Midsummer Night's Dream is my fave to teach.
