Spring Semester 2010

You are going to LOVE this six-weeks! Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is our text. Stagecraft, elements of drama, comic relief, the foil, elements of tragedy, and tragic flaw are just a few of the subjects we will examine during the course of the grading period. We will learn a bit about Shakespeare's life, times, and works, attempt to "cut" a scene from R& J, and a few of you (volunteers) will put one of the scenes on its feet on the stage! Indiana Repertory Theatre has invited us to be a part of the first Schools on Stage program. Come and see, even if you aren't one of the dozen who is directly involved. The show is right after the Romeo and Juliet 2:00 p.m. matinee. It will start around 4:45 - 5:00 and it will end around 6:00. The Schools on Stage program is free. Anyone in the show has a free ticket. Others, family included, can request a discount ticket from the ticket office.
