I think it probably helps to see the play either on stage or video. The full thing is great, but also the BBC did a series of 30-minute animated adaptations which were really excellent.

Watching it on stage definitely helped me get more interested. Last year we read Julius Caesar and A Midsummer Night's Dream, and by luck both of those were being performed at our towns Shakespeare festival at the same time we were reading them. So a bunch of people from my class and my teacher went as a sort of informal field trip to watch those. It was a lot of fun.
