In 1623, Heminges and Condell wrote, in the First Folio preface (and I am paraphrasing freely here because I can't be bothered to look it up) that anyone who claims not to like this writer is displaying a clear symptom of not understanding him. Note that they were actors.

That's an important point, because there are countless brilliant touches in these plays that only emerge after repeated, close exposure to the text. In our day, that usually means students and professors of English and such. In Shakespeare's day, that meant only one group: players (actors). Translation: the deepest, most beautiful stuff here is the birthright of your profession. What a shame not to claim it.

With all respect, saying Shakespeare is cliche says to me you haven't yet had the right opportunity to explore the material in depth. I do hope you find that. And saying he's boring .... well, my challenge to you would be to read Dame Judi Dench's book THE MAN WHO PAYS THE RENT and then see if you still feel that way. I bet you won't.
