When reading Shakespeare with kids who don't know Shakespeare (read: most of them), why do they insist on using the voice of either Charlton Heston or Dame Edna?
And? It's not always the girls who use the Dame Edna voice.

I have often wondered about the phenomenon of the Bad British Accent - in every crop of new actors I get, there's always at least one who delivers every line with a ghastly accent, usually without any clue he/she's doing so.
It seems there's a master's thesis topic in the makings there.
I've got something up I think you'll enjoy at my place. Come play!
To sum up what I've learned in fifteen years of teaching: kids are weird. Remember that. It's a priceless gem of wisdom. ;-)
