Shakespeare is only seen as high-culture today because his works are rather old. In his own time, he was as popular as the Blood Games comics, or those Astra Morgansen books. He had something for everyone - philosophy and poetry for the genteel viewer, and lots of fighting, humour, and sex for the everywitch and everywizard.

I think if you visualise yourself as someone who could, in fact, excel at dancing rather than stomping all over my toes - yes, that would be a good starting place.
No waltzing on the train! I am a prefect, you realise. But meeting at Gerald's studio might not be a bad idea. Aren't you going to be busy with quidditch and things, though?
