I've always wanted to read more but I can't really get into reading plays like I can with other things, I need to see them performed to enjoy them.

I think you need to really want to read them to be able to do it; they're quite complex in parts, I know that I would have given up if I didn't have a teacher explaining the difficult parts to me. Half the battle is trying to comprehend the language in modern language, and then you need to understand the imagery... Quite satisfying when you finish though!

It's less to do with the language and more the written layout of plays, I can't really enjoy reading scripts.
