MSC Memory - Romeo and Juliet
To this day, when my children’s friends say “Oh I hate Shakespeare… we have to read Romeo and Juliet and blah blah blah….” My children respond ‘then you haven’t seen it performed as it should be”… like in Marin Shakespeare’s 2005 rendition with Andy Butterfield and Julia Motyka….and it’s not just because they were impressed at how long Andy could simultaneously hang from that balcony and play his lines so perfectly. I admit that most of the kids we bring to the Shakespeare performances prefer the comedies, but all the preteens and teens who were with us at Romeo and Juliet understood every nuance, every sentiment of the play and enjoyed the whole thing!!!Thank you!!!
