From Bad to Worse: Is Fortune Fickle?
I must say that the artwork, photo stories, interpretation and acting were fabulous in our classroom production of Act III and part of Act IV. You brought the poetry to life - literally - and demonstrated some interesting characterizations. What becomes clear by this point in the play is that whatever could go wrong will, and whatever could be worse will be! But what do we expect? This is a tragedy.
Most of you have handed in your production goal sheets and your self-assessments, but if you haven't yet, be sure to get that in right away. We'll be forging ahead into Act IV, and we'll be reviewing notes and setting up more reading today.
In the meantime, be thinking about what themes we see in the play. Be thinking about the characters and what traits we still see in people today. These ideas are what make Shakespeare's work interesting and current today.

That picture is adorable! The plays this week were fun, but I think they would have beeen even more enjoyable if everyone dressed up in character. My group did pretty well, but I wish we would have done what David & Brooke's group did with the interpetation. They were really creative. :D
