Every year on April 23rd, Shakespeare Day is celebrated worldwide on the date of his birth. In 2024, William Shakespeare's legacy remains undeniably enduring as we mark the 460th anniversary of his birth. According to Wikipedia, "William Shakespeare (c. 23 April 1564 – 23 April 1616) was an English playwright, poet, and actor. He is widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist .... His extant works, including collaborations, consist of some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, three long narrative poems, and a few other verses, some of uncertain authorship. His plays have been translated into every major living language and are performed more often than those of any other playwright. Shakespeare remains arguably the most influential writer in the English language, and his works continue to be studied and reinterpreted." Today, his body of work is so well-regarded that performing it well is considered one of the best ways to learn the craft of acting. Worldwide, many actresses-in-training choose to hone their skills at performing arts schools and theater companies that utilize works of Shakespeare as their primary course of study. Many extol the virtue of such an approach; which both fine-tunes their existing talents and elevates them by developing new skill sets. In celebration of this milestone anniversary, Shakespeare's continuing legacy and the impact that Shakepearean-trained talent has on the quality of modern entertainment: Which of these select British movie or television actresses who are Shakespearean-trained do you think is the best one?

Below, according to Wikipedia: Triple Crown of Acting Article, each of these actors and actresses, as of July 2022, have won either the American Triple Crown of acting (the Oscar, the Tony, and the Emmy) or the British Triple Crown of Acting (the BAFTA Film Awards, the BAFTA Television Awards and the Laurence Olivier Awards) for acting in competitive acting categories and not for an honorary award or such. Which one is your favorite? Fun facts: The first ones to complete a triple crown for America or UK/Britain were actresses. Only one actress completed multiple triple crowns in her own home country (3 times). The fastest to complete the American triple crown was an English actor. He took seven years to do it. One actress (British) won both the American and British Triple Crowns. Most of the ones who won the British Triple Crown are missing one award needed to get the American also. The list of those who need one of the awards needed to get the American triple crown is surprising and impressive. The triple crown they won will be marked with an A for American or B for British. To talk about this list or to suggest more triple crown winners, in case Wikipedia needs to updated, or especially for countries other than the UK, or USA, (I only had easy to get information for those two), please name them here. I want to be inclusive here.
