Drama part seven (again, my b)

Romeo and Juliet is NOT a tragedy. It's a happy ending.
BECAUSE:
Even though Romeo and Juliet both died, they died in the presence of that which they loved most dear, each other.
After Romeo and Juliet die, the Capulets and the Montagues kiss and make up, being shown the wrongs they've done each other, and they know that even through all the hate, Romeo and Juliet still found love, and the hate lead them to their dooms.
AND
It's better to look at it from a happy perspective, instead of saying THEY DIED!!! WHAT THE CRACK MAN?!?! and start bawling and stuff.
The costumes were kind of cool, too.
Not the tights. Awkward.

Drama experience part seven

My drama experience for the past week isn't much. Learning new games was fun enough, but I miss the way it is at CGST. No one here really gets into it or lets loose, and it's sad, because those games could be so much fun. But they're not, because no one is willing to just be all pshhjdhfuiohwejhds;fdsjhf;sdfjhdsf. Lame.

Drama experience 05-14-09

Today was an interesting day. We played my drama games from CGST, but they weren't fun because people weren't getting into them and they didn't enjoy it. It's only fun when everyone gets out of their comfort zones and lets loose that little kid. The way the games were going, I wanted to light off a stink bomb. It was way worse than I intended, not much fun at all.

Drama experience part two

I never realized how much New Moon was based off of Romeo and Juliet. Stephenie Meyer paralleled A LOT of stuff. It kind of makes me mad, because some of the lines are basically translated into plain English, and everyone praises her for it! I mean, Stephenie Meyer is a brilliant idealist, I love Twilight and all the other books, but still. It's not fair.

Drama Experience 05- 04- 2009

Romeo and Juliet the movie is different than just reading the play. You don't expect a lot of the actions to be the way they are, and when you see them on the movie, you're suprised. Such as Mercrutio's lines, they are so randomly acted you wouldn't have any idea just looking at them that that's what was going on. But it was good to see how Romeo in the Balcony Scene acted, because it gave me something to work with.

Drama Experience Post Two

Working on my scene is a lot of fun. Catherine and I can take Romeo and Juliet's relationships to a lot of different levels, and it's amazing what we get from it. I.E., Romeo is Gay, Juliet is slutty, Romeo is southern, Juliet is preppy, etc. I love acting!!

Drama Experience - 04-20-2009

I love drama!!! I've never played those games before, and they are fun, but not as fun as Whoosh or Zip Zap Zop or Monkey or GrabTheBall. I've never worked with Shakespeare before, which is a sad statement, but now that I'm Romeo, I love it! I'm taking the character to a lot of different levels and it's hard to be serious saying "Two stars in all the heaven do entreat her eyes" in a southern accent or rapping. :)
