Day No. Cuatro

Day 4 and everyone is doing so great! The dance for the saturday night is looking really good. Can't wait to continue with the other blocking! I also loved what we learned today in the morning. I recently watched a show from the 80s called "Playing Shakespeare" with RSC assistant dir. John Barton in it: it is like a 7 hour show. But today Ian basically summarized everything from that show in an even shorter amount of time; I was really glad to be able to learn about acting Shakespeare. And it was really good to be able to put to practice all the things we were taught by reading those speeches. They were so fun but soo hectic! Anywho, another awesome day at Burning Coal! -Elise K

  1. RSC are way cool. They've got Hamlet on Youtube with David Tennant. It's way good. They modernized it and put it on BBC whatever. I think they've done it with a couple of other ones as well, but in particular, I dug Hamlet.
