Oct. 26th, 2009 10:23 pmSo like I said, Friday night I managed to get to go see Hamlet with Jude Law. The short version of that story is FUCKING AMAZING, and the longer version of that is FUCKING AMAZING and now we're going to talk about a few things.
( This is gonna get long. )
That aside, things are all right. I'm keeping busy. I'm excited because I get to do a full protocol for the Intro class, and I get to choose any play I want. I was thinking The Sea Gull, but now I'm thinking about doing Spring's Awakening. (Chris gave a presentation on Goethe and Faust last Thursday and I FINALLY managed to connect Melchior to Faust and Wendla to Gretchen -- I knew in general about the plot of Faust, mind you, but reading it really shed light on it.) I think it would be interesting to work on.
Right now I'm working on a production history project, where we had to cite three productions of any Ibsen play, or any other play that we've studied in the class up to this point. I chose Ghosts because I'm so over A Doll House, and I am remembering how awesome this play is. I haven't read it since I was in high school. I was going to do our next project (images and sound) on A Dream Play by Strindberg, but now I'm thinking I want to keep working on Ghosts.
