30 September Class

We finished Acts 3 & Acts 4. Next week we will probably finish reading As You Like It.

23 September Class

We reviewed what happens in the play, and continued reading, finishing Act 1 and reading all of Act 2.

A few of the interesting lines:
"More free from peril than the envious court." (Old Duke)
"For my part, I had rather bear with you than bear you." (Touchstone)
"A fool, a fool! I met a fool in the forest, A motley fool..." (Jaques)

"And all the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players: They have their exits and their entrances; and one man in his time plays many parts.." (Jaques)

Sept 16 Class

We discussed what had happened last week during the movie and then finished the movie.

We looked at who has ended up in the Forrest/Woods:
Banished Duke, Rosalind, Celia, Clown, Orlando, Old Man (servant), Shepherd, Girl…

After the movie we started the reading, passing out parts and then getting through the 1st 2 scenes in the 1st act. Everyone did very well with their reading.

November classes

Just a heads up, there will not be any Wednesday classes during the month of November. (We will be holding Mock Trial Scrimmages during the 1st 2 Wednesdays of November instead...More information later on those in case you want to watch those.)

First Fall Class

We started the semester watching most of the black and white version of Lawrence Oliver’s As You Like It. Next week we will finish watching it and start reading it. Be sure to let me know if you have a part preference or a size preference (small, medium, or large).
