Shakespeare Scenes Night: Romeo and Juliet

This entire week, the our play group worked very hard to work out all the kinks in our performance. We met three extra days and felt that we had prepared as best we could considering how little time we actually got in the auditorium and despite the fact that we never had the chance to run through the ending. I am confident the audience thoroughly enjoyed our performance, however rough and unpolished it ended up looking. I stumbled a couple times, with an awkward pause as the nun, forgeting my last three lines. I ended up saying "Hold then go home....take thou this vile." At least it kind of fit. I enjoyed the rest of the groups' peformances. While no one was flawless, we all brought humor and entertainment to the work of Shakespeare. Every group took a unique spin on the adaptation, and I hope that our shortcomings, (especially mine), will be overlooked by the audience and that they focus on our great effort.
