Journal #1: How do you feel going into this project? How are you feeling about having to read and perform Shakespeare?
Finish Jaques' Soliloquy....
From another soliloquy...
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Macbeth V.v.19-28
