Bottom and Titania in the forest

Nice. My favorite line is near the end of the play, "Silence awhile, Robin, take off this head!" We performed twice, once on Friday and once on Saturday. We started reading the play back in January. It's been a lot of work for two nights of performance, but it payed off.

I love MSND - I performed as one of Oberon's henchmen, a year or so ago. In fact, I was reciting one of the lines as I walked to school this morning, because we're acting various pieces of Shakespeare for a Drama project.

"Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough briar,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire.
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere,
And I serve the Fairy Queen..."

We were only meant to learn an individual fragment of a line, such as:

"Hubble bubble, toil and trouble"

or something short like that. We had to answer our names with our line, and it was literally...

Teacher: Emily?
Me: Over hill, over dale, thorough bush, thorough briar-
Teacher: That's a nice line...
Me: Over park, over pale, thorough flood, thorough fire...
Teacher: Huh?
*class laughs a little*
*awkward pause*
Me: I do wander everywhere...
*Teacher looks increasingly confused*
*class laughs hysterically*
Me: Swifter than the moon's sphere...
*awkward pause - I couldn't remember the line for a couple of seconds*
Teacher: Are you done..?
Me: (speaking very quickly) And I serve the Fairy Queen... Yeah, I'm done...

  MSND is awesome. Oh, and yeah, my name is Emily... 

Yep I remember that part. "Either I mistake your shape and making quite. or else you are that shrewd and knavish sprite called Robin Goodfellow. Are not you he, that frights the maidens of the villagery? And those that hobgoblins call you, and sweet Puck, you do there work and they shall have good luck. Are not you he?" (I really doubt I got the punctuation right on that one.) Shakespeare is awesome! And so is MSND.    Oh and btw, I'm honored to meet you, Wolfie!
