Fordim, I've always wanted to visit the Boston region and what you say makes me want to all the more. However, it might not necessarily be the accent that Shakespeare himself spoke, there were strong regional variations in Tudor England too.
I do love old-fashioned regional accents and speech. My elderly neighbour, when I was living in Yorkshire, still used the old-style second person singular, he would to say to me "I worry 'bout thee, lass, so far from thy parents."
