Better than the part I had in drama school! I was playing the wall! 😂

Some man or other must present Wall: and let him
have some plaster, or some loam, or some rough-cast
about him, to signify wall; and let him hold his
fingers thus, and through that cranny shall Pyramus
and Thisbe whisper.

I have a friend who I have known for at least 40 years. She is known as "Tree" on account of that being the part she played in her first school play. I have no idea of her given name at birth.

It can be lots of fun playing “objects” even in Willie’s plays. Actually, I was studying method acting and Shakespeare was only a kind of introduction to classics.

It's a good thing your English is so fine since Shakespeare in French loses a great deal, most especially its meter.

In the Musical, The Fantastiks, one mute actor plays the wall, as well as handling other small tasks.

Believe it or not, I even add-libbed  in an in-house presentation of Shakespeare. I was doing a section of Hamlet when  he was saying …. To die… to sleep…. Per chance to dream…  When I heard laughters in the audience! Then I addenda: …. And some asses laugh with the idea of death… …

When it was finished, I learned there were small kids playing, and their mother came to apologize! 🤗 🥴

My teachers said it was the first time they heard someone ad-libbing Shakespeare, and  with a French accent! 😂

BTW, Stuny; it is good to have a thread and people posting or commenting in the same thread without screwing up the whole galleries! Look what is going on in Street photography gallery how fast pages disappearing because of some people over posting with anything that comes out of their camera!….

My point was for the gallery: What do we photograph on the street

This is the perfect way of screwing up an interesting gallery  by selfish and irresponsible folks! … As a friend was saying, when the lunch is free, people over stuff themselves!….

We once had a cat named Tree. You can guess why.
