Before I had an official Bucket List I knew that I wanted to see a live performance of every play in the Shakespearean canon. I completed my canon in January of 2017 by seeing “Two Noble Kinsman” in Stratford-Upon-Avon by the Royal Shakespeare Company. In what couldn’t have been a more perfect end to a journey, I completed my canon in the birthplace of the Bard, watching a production done by the official company named after him.
