So I Was In Rehearsal For Julius Caesar (performing Outside Mind You) And While Antony Was Doing The

So I was in rehearsal for julius caesar (performing outside mind you) and while antony was doing the whole “friends, romans, countrymen” speech, some random person yelled “PERIOD!” while walking by. Anyone who says shakespeare isn’t relatable to modern audiences is just Wrong.

had a normal one this weekend (watched a recorded production of a midsummer night's dream and two of much ado about nothing)

I’M SELLING TWO TICKETS FOR DAVID TENNANT AND CUSH JUMBO’S MACBETH ON NOVEMBER THE 4TH

Please buy them from me I’ve changed dates and I REALLY have to get rid of these tickets

The seats are good

I'm not sure how legit the claim is that where Shakespeare deviates from iambic pentameter it's meant to indicate how long to pause for. However:

"Is the law on our side if I say 'aye'?" (In Original Pronunciation, this probably fit iambic pentameter exactly)

*spends 4.5 iambs looking around as if to say 'can you believe this guy?' "No!"

is pretty funny and exactly how i'd play that if i was an actrum
