O truant Muse, what shall be thy amends For thy neglect of truth in beauty dyed? Both truth and beauty on my love depends; So dost thou too, and therein dignified. Make answer, Muse: wilt thou not haply say 5 'Truth needs no colour, with his colour fix'd; Beauty no pencil, beauty's truth to lay; But best is best, if never intermix'd?' Because he needs no praise, wilt thou be dumb? Excuse not silence so; for't lies in thee 10 To make him much outlive a gilded tomb, And to be praised of ages yet to be. Then do thy office, Muse; I teach thee how To make him seem long hence as he shows now.

In the decades after Lincoln, Shakespeare productions were a constant feature of frontier life in the west. When Los Angeles became the company town for an emerging film industry, Shakespeare shape-shifted again, becoming part of Hollywood westerns. He had been performed by companies up and down California for decades.
It's truly insane to see the fact that Shakespeare is still now being performed and studied, even 500 years ago. William Shakespeare was born in April 26, 1564, and his work is still studied today in 2016.
