Thanks for watching Heidi! 🥰 RIGHT?! Isn’t that so interesting? Very glad you enjoyed it & even chuckled a bit! Thank you for commenting and letting me know 😌💕✨
I have to rehearse Juliet's monologue for my theater class, and this video really helped me understand Juliet better and dig deeper into her character. The way you describe everything in great detail was so helpful, and I can't thank you enough. You really encouraged me to do my best and made this assignment less difficult. Thank you so much for helping me get a 100!
Oh my goodness what an AMAZING comment! 🥹💕🙏 Thank you so much for taking the time to write this. It is very generous of you. And I’m so EXCITED for your 100!!!!! Woo hoo! Very glad this helped. Thanks again for writing this. You made my day 😌✨
Your videos detailing meaning and character in the Shakespearean language, coupled with your pointers about the metrics of the verse, are always informative and entertaining. What a nice gift for young actors who find themselves intimidated by Shakespeare; you're encouraging, and you make the challenge seem welcoming. I always enjoy watching you teach!
Thank you David! So grateful you find them well done, and very happy to be considered "a gift" 🥰🙏✨ And I really appreciate you letting me know by commenting on this video. Thanks for watching m'lord!
Haha I thank thee kind sir! Yep, just lawyers and Shakespeare nerds 😁 Thanks for watching and commenting!! Welcome to the channel. So glad to have you.
Just discovered you and you are a gem. Totally made me fall in love with Shakespeare. Humble request: Would you please do all the acts, scenes, verses, monologues, sololiquies in this and everything in Shakespeare. I learned more from you in 30 minutes than any of my English teachers and professors combined. Thanks for uploading this!
Omg… 🥹🙏✨ This is so incredibly sweet of you to say. Sorry for the delayed response - I’ve been so busy performing and directing Shakespeare that I haven’t been able to dive into this channel as much as I like. But a generous comment like this makes me feel more inspired than ever to put my whole heart into it. Thank you for watching and commenting, and for taking the time to write this 💖 YOU are the gem. Such kindness and generosity can change the world. Very glad to have you in this channel.
it went great! :D I got cast as a secondary character and part of ensemble which was amazing and lots of fun since it was my first production. I hope to do lots more, and I also look forward to watching more of your tutorial vids!
Thank you very much Carla! Apologies for the delayed response. My summer was a little packed (with Shakespeare, luckily!) but I’m glad to have a little more time now to spend on this channel. I appreciate you watching and commenting 🥰✨🙏 Anon!
You have a gift for teaching. Informative and entertaining. Not to be a jerk, but I only wish you'd leave out the background music. It distracts from your brilliance.
Of course! My main “theme” is Yonder Hill and Dale by Aaron Kenny & throughout the tutorial is a loop of Renaissance Castle by Doug Maxwell. Both available on the RU-vid Audio Library! Thanks for watching 🙃🙌
O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name. Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love And I’ll no longer be a Capulet. ‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy: Thou art thyself, though not a Montague. What’s Montague? It is nor hand nor foot Nor arm nor face nor any other part Belonging to a man. O be some other name. What’s in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call’d, Retain that dear perfection which he owes Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name, And for that name, which is no part of thee, Take all myself.
