To be or not to be: Jewish actor Liev Schreiber is on the stage this summer -- but not in air-conditioned theater. He's starring in the Public Theater production of "Henry V" in Central Park. "I think when you are starting out and trying to make a living, it is always a good idea to play your strengths and market what you know," he says. "I was just comfortable and at home with classical texts. I also felt like I had purpose in those texts -- I felt function, I felt form. I think Shakespeare's plays, to put it in the old vernacular Jewish, are mitzvahs and I think that they are good to do because they mean something."
