Stratford bound

submitted by Zoe

Guess what I'm doing on the way to Stratford tomorrow?

Why, Zoe! You're doing your tons of IB homework!

Yes, self. But what else will I be doing tomorrow for 7 hours?

Oh, Zoe, don't be silly. You'll be doing one of your 56 sketchbook assignments for AP Art!

Of course, self. But what's that one, most important thing that will trump all of my other obligations and absorb all of my creative energies for 6 of the 7 hours tomorrow?

STUDYING MY SCRIPT!

Today was fun. We choreographed the beginning of the show and got to get into it a little on our own while the witches were at work in the corner. However, when they finished and we all sort of broke apart, I was really proud to see how many people took it upon themselves to go sit in a corner and really just work their scripts. One person showed me about 10 pages of subtext written out in impossibly tiny writing. So I worked out some of my soliloquy work and went into some of Maz's library cart for some help. Really good stuff, if anybody gets the chance. Especially the one with one chapter per play that's pretty much analysis. And the Arden edition of Macbeth.

Stinks to gain momentum and then have to go for five days. At least I'll be seeing physically as much theater as possible. I'm so pumped for To Kill a Mockingbird.

Better go pack away my script so I don't forget it.
