The Merchant of Venice, Act 4, Scene 1.

I've always wanted to play Portia, but the opportunity has never come along. This famous speech is especially close to my heart, so it was a natural choice for my first "mono-vlogue" of Shakespeare Week 2015.

Shakespeare Week is an annual celebration led by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, giving primary school children a great first encounter with Shakespeare. Visit http://shakespeareweek.org.uk to learn more!
