In the first half hour we talk with actor and writer Roger Rees, a record-holder for his 150 performances as Hamlet. Rees is the writer and star behind the one-man show “What You Will,” now at the ACT. He joins us for a conversation about what he calls his complicated relationship with Shakespeare. In the second half hour we welcome Jess Winfield, co-founder of the Reduced Shakespeare Co. for a conversation on his book “My name is Will: A Novel of Sex, Drugs and Shakespeare.”
