Last week, the theater club that Clark, Anne, and I have been working with since September (!) finally presented our edited “No Fear Shakespeare”/EFL version of Romeo and Juliet. We got the video back just in time for our junk food cast party and watched it in its full, 30-minute glory. One of my favorite lines from the play? When Romeo shouts, “My baby hawk!”
Some favorite scenes:
The Fight Scene [15:20-20:44] (“Good afternoon gentlemen. I’d like to have a word with one of you.”)
Lord Capulet Goes Berserk [23:00-26:20] (Scary!)
Romeo and Juliet commit suicide [29:48-32-44] (notice the baijiu used as the poison and the real tears from Juliet!)
…Really makes me wish I had been a drama nerd in high school. The play was SO MUCH FUN!
