Right, another introduction. :)

I'm Kavita (known online as [livejournal.com profile] lareinenoire or some derivative thereof). I live in Ohio, although I spent the past year in Cambridge, working on my M.Phil.

Favourite history plays include Shakespeare's Richard III, Marlowe's Edward II, and Webster's Duchess of Malfi (yes, I know, it isn't technically a *history*, but it's certainly based on a fair bit of history, no less than any of the others). I adored the bizarrely Fascist version of Richard with Ian McKellen, but I generally adore Ian McKellen, so that's not altogether surprising. Still need to find a copy of Duchess, as not too many people seem to perform it these days. Le sigh.

That's all I can think of at the moment. But I'm quite happy to find havens for historical geekery. ::grin::
