The Equivocators
Everything is what it seems... in a play
where I come to terms with some of the scenes that have puzzled me for
a long time in Shakespeare's plays. Why does Cleopatra just turn around
and leave Antony to his own devices in Actium if she loved him so much?
Why does Hamlet want to kill his uncle but finds it so hard to decide?
And why oh why does Iago act the way he does? Well, because of the equivocators
of course! But who are they? Ah, that remains to be seen. Do they themselves
know who they are? Do I? Is everything really what it seems? Of course
it is...
