British chieftain, Cunobelin?, who reigned at the time of the Roman invasion.--when is that? do we have dates by chance?
This past weekend, a Swedish theater group in my part of New York state performed their version of Cymbeline entitled Immo and Leo. Just a thought... JB82 19:53, 25 May 2004 (UTC)
- If you want to see Cymbeline and you are in Montana, Montana Shakespeare in the Parks is showing it over the course of the 2005 summer. I enjoyed their performance of Cymbeline. Jrincayc 3 July 2005 21:21 (UTC)
Imogen is one of the very small number of great female roles in Shakespeare.
Really? I can think of at least a dozen other good ones (Lady Macbeth, Goneril, Regan, Cordelia, Gertrude, Ophelia, Desdemona, Cleopatra, Miranda, Rosalind, Titania, Beatrice, Portia, Viola, Olivia), and that's only going with the most famous plays, not even getting into plays of the level of fame of Cymbeline. On what basis do we make this statement? john k 14:08, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
- Maybe it means small in comparison to the number of great male roles? I agree, though, that it's an oddly-expressed statement. The Singing Badger 15:13, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
Obviously there are more great male roles. But "very small" seems odd - especially since I've never heard Imogen described as a particularly great role... john k 15:48, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
